Quote - Do you still listen to a radio station in today's world?

If no,  where do you get your news, weather, and music from?

If yes, what do you listen for? What type of station do you prefer? And how long do you listen per day?

I ask because I use to be a DJ. People have predicted the death of radio before, but radio has always managed to reinvent itself and survive. So in today's internet oriented world, do you still have time for something as "old fashioned" as radio?

Nope. Haven't listened to radio in probably 10 years or more, unless i'm riding with someone who does, like my dad whose in his mid 60s and always tunes to AM stations, gods only know why. on those occasions i just tune it out. 

I hate commercials, on tv or radio, so I eliminate them at every opportunity possible. I also see no point in paying for satelite radio, even if i did want to afford it. i'd still have to put up with thie bs. 

I play CDs in my truck, most of which I burned myself from my vastly extensive mp3 library. I used to have an iPod that plugged directly into my stereo in the truck via usb, but my ex stepped on it once by accident (it fell in the floorboard) and it soon quit working. that was probably 5 yrs ago. didn't bother replacing it.  I can put up to 7 hours of music on one cd and I'm only in my truck maybe an hour a day at most. So I can go several days or more without ever having to hear the same song if I don't want to. 

News, online

Weather, from weather.com or from my cell phone. 

I rarely watch tv. i buy my favorite shows/movies on dvd so as to avoid commercials, or just watch them online.

Yeah, pretty much I don't see much of a future for radio, and I'm pretty sure cable/satelite tv isn't far behind. Roku/Netflix/hulu/letmewatchthisnow and a myriad of others like them rule the future.
