I just don't see where I can fit a radio in while I'm home with the Internet. Mainly because it will interfere with the TV and Internet so radio listening is for background sound if I'm cleaning something but I haven't listened to the radio in 7 years which is why I never know anything about NEW MUSIC. So who listens to the Radio in the house and if you do how long?

I listen to the radio at home occasionally. But I definetly enjoy it more when I'm in the car. There's nothing like driving along to your favorite song on the radio! ;)
Mostly at home I find myself listening to my MP3s though.

I listen to the radio in the house. There's a radio by the computer, so I sometimes have it on while I'm on the computer.
When the Emperor Rosko had his "disco" show on Friday and Saturday nights (Friday it was five hours, Saturday it was six hours), I'd have the radio on for the whole time it was on - because I really like disco music.

Radio is best for:
1. Car
2. Beach/pool
3. BBQs/picnics
4. work around the house- inside or out
5. Christmas music for wherever (seasonal, obviously)

That's a good list. I mainly just listen to the radio in the car though.

I only listen to the radio when I'm sleeping, but I listen to CDs everyday. I listen to them at home and in the car. I love music! :D

Radio is ****. There's nothing ever good on. So wherever I go, my CDs go as well. :)

Mostly just in the car, although I do listen to Sirius thru Dish Network on my TV, so I guess I could count that as radio in the house. And I just bought a little ipod shaped radio, so I'll use than if my mp3 player is dead.

When nothing is on TV, I turn my Sirius radio and get on computer like im doing right now as I type this.

In the car it's always my CD's or Sirius Satellite radio. At home while cleaning I will also have satellite radio on or play my CD's on the computer. Free radio has waaaaay too much commercials, interruptions, talking, same old songs over and over and over again. The only free radio that I listen to is this oldie station that plays great songs, not the same old oldies you hear on other oldie stations, this one plays rare, hard to find stuff, classics. I have this station on while I am falling asleep and leave it on all night.

I listen to the radio while I'm in the shower, while I'm cooking, cleaning, on the computer, and while I'm at work, In the car.

I like radio stations in the office and in the car. When i'm on the computer, I like to listen to music I have stored in Itunes or one of their radio stations.

I wouldn't know. I don't even listen to radio in my car! :lol: I always play CDs, and I listen to a Swedish online radio station on my computer.
To me, terrestrial radio is dead. It's become so polluted with commercials and same ol', same ol' repetitive playlists (even oldies/classic rock stations play the same 100 or so songs ad nausem) that it's unlistenable. Satellite radio is where it's at, and yes, I do most of my listening to it in the car.
I do a lot of music-listening at home, too, however, but the majority of it is records and CDs.

Yep!
And if I'm on the computer, I listen to internet radio or a CD or Mp3's that are on my computer. ;)
I tried the iPod/MP3 thing, but the lingering knowledge that the music is compressed when compared to the CDs from whence they're ripped really bothers me. And on some CD rips, if the person who encoded the file is careless, you can plainly hear loss.
So I'm still on my CD/vinyl high horse. If I listen to music on my computer, it's ripped by me in wav format, since it's lossless.

I have peasent-hearing radio. No antenna on my car. I pick up one station.
Other than that, I only listen to music in my car. I've never been a huge music person.
My husband on the other hand, has an MP3 player loaded with every song from the 60s up you could imagine.

Yeah, the only time I listen to the radio is when I'm in a car. I have Rhapsody, so that's what I listen to everyday.
My CD player has an AM/FM radio so I occassionally listen to it in the house. In general, I only listen to music in the car.

I hardly ever listen to the radio for music. I'm a big fan of some talk radio shows... Frosty, Heidi, and Frank on KLSX and John and Ken on KFI.
