   I like AM conservative talk. When I was a young man I loved FM music, but there are to many important issues these days. I have to be informed.

   Most often FM as I have the radio on for company when I am working on something. More for the noise than the content.

   If at first you don't succeed you are running about average.

   Neither...iPod

   It's like having my own radio station, plays only the music I like, and if I don't want to hear a song ---- skip

   For me none of the above.
   I listen to Pandora online.
   I have the Mancini channel, Marty Robbins channel, Shadowfax channel, and an Alan Parson's Project channel. I also have a Mozart, an ELP,and a few others.
   Whatever I'm in the Mood for.

   ditto oppie. Almost all AM conservative talk radio. Some FM jazz. When I was younger it was all music fare for me, but it just isn't in my blood anymore. I dunno why. Around Thanksgiving a local FM station starts playing nonstop Christmas music and I listen to that almost exclusively; and I miss it on Dec. 26th when they stop.

   XM here. A leftover from my days driving a truck. Most of the time, the old radio shows I grew up with.

   I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane.

   Wolfgangs Vault ,5600 songs on computer ,300 cassettes . 300 or so vinyl records , reel to reel and eight track . Dont laugh I take care of my stuff .All componets from thrift stores . I may be older and fatter but I can shake the windows when needed .

    Igloo, sounds like an impressive collection. Most of my music in now on the ipod, (I’m a huge 80’s fan) but in the car it’s either XM or local AM Conservative talk.

    I like all music from Karen Carpenter to Nine Inch Nails .The wife and I like to go to the symphoney powerful and moving even for a non Classical listener . A friend gave me a box of old albums , so I hauled a large tower speaker and qd up the Sound of Music full bore into my sleeping daughters room . The sceen that followed was priceless .

    I recently started listening to the local Classical station from 8-11PM as they call it "Adagio" and it is some very calming, soft music that's perfect to smoke a bowl to.

    Igloo has it about right for me in terms of taste. I don't like other people picking music or deciding what counts as useful information so I tend to avoid radio altogether. Ipod and Rhapsody.

    A lot of different streaming stations: from "alchemist's lounge" (ambient downtempo) to birdsong radio (for the cats!) to danish electro-folk to french rural zithern musique to north african chant to russian teeny-pop to japanese koto & shakuhachi to great arias (gotten into opera lately) to classic country (when i get the workin' man blues) to bollywood to podcasts to...all over the board, basically.

    I haven't had the "radio" on in either my truck or car in months.

    I'm also a big Pandora fan. My puter has a great sound 'system".
    Personal stations on Pandora number about 17, everything from Choral Baroque to Rockabilly, artists from Edith Piaf to Carlos Santana.

    I use my Zuney. Either if's FM tuner, or I let it decide what I should listen to (based upon a song I choose) at which point it creates a playlist off of my Zune's memory or streams new stuff if it can.

    I'm not a big music guy, so I will usually listen to podcast. Someone gave me a bluetooth speaker that transmits over my cars speakers. That thing is great.
