Music on the Radio (alternative, indie, mp3 player, Blink 182, quote)

All commercial radio blows. Clearchannel and Infinity own 90% of the stations in the U.S. and they have a crappy repetitive playlist for each genre in each marketplace. The only radio I listen to now is NPR or our local community radio www.wmnf.org - they are commercial free and have very eclectic programming. You can listen online as well.

I like to hear rock n roll music for the most, but they always like to pick rap music. :sign: I always press my buttons to find a better music and I can't find a good one. If I had my favorite album, I would listen to it more than the radio, since they think rap is hotter than rock music. To me, rock n roll music is the best in the world today.

The radio does suck. I don't rely on other people to choose my music for me, I chose it myself.

Wow, seems like a lot of people aren't too happy with the radio music?

The local radio where I live is appauling, they only play the most commercial music and their idea of alternative is The Darkness, and they only play them because they are from the area. Radio 1 isn't too bad in the evenings, though I do hate the way that they have pushed Steve Lamaq back to 9 o'clock so I have to endure 2 hours of Zane Lowe first and the lack of John Peel just upsets me.

I think most radio stations just try to make people stupid and listen to stupid music

So no, I don't like what's on the radio.
