I've found that I'm listening to my music less and less because I've grown so tired of what I have. I guess I could go out and buy more music, but my "music" budget has recently been eated up by my gas budget. So what's a girl to do? I've started spending more time tuned in to yahoo's free music radio, and that will give me a nice variety when I'm at home, but what should I do when I'm away from home? Any suggestions?

Why don't you download it from the internet? Or lean some cd's from friends. Or you can record the music from the radio on tape. There are so many ways to discover new music. I remember this online music program, made for discovering new music bands, but I forgot the name of the program though. I'll post it on this topic later. Greetz.

Well, concerning music you definitely should join this site:
http://www.last.fm
It's something like myspace but more directed to music.. For example when you're listening to some music on your media player, last.fm automatically suggest other groups, bands, and title songs which are related to the song you're listening to. And you can listen to the songs too if you want. Though I don't think you're able to download them. Good luck, if you should check it out.

I like to experience with my music,when im bored with it..i will mix some of the songs together using a music software and edit it..it will turn out funny and sometimes cool enough for my hearing.Its like a new song for me to share with my friends.

I used to love rock and loud music especially when I was still in college. When I started to get a job after college and entered the corporate world, workloads seem to get stressful and I easily get pressure. Music really helps to sooth your tired mind. I tried listening to music with a different melody in different genre. Suade song's especially "Smooth Operator" became my fave. Samba is also soothing.. If you also think that you're music is boring since you keep on listening to the same music all day, you can try to download different songs in limewire. Some songs that you weren't aware of but you'll be surprised to find out that you will love it's melody and rhythm. Sometimes, it's not just about the lyrics nor the popularity of the song. If you feel like you want your mind to relax, listen to good melodies. I believe classical is healthy for the mind.

I download as much as I can from free internet file shares and select songs (about a hundred) that go best together and upload it in my ipod. Once I got bored, then, I guess it's time to change the repertoire so I select another group of songs for my next travel which normally takes 3 to 4 days.

You could trade your cds for some new ones at a cd exchange store. I dont listen to my music enough to get bored by it. Sometimes I feel bored with the cds I ahve in my car though. I just exchange them with the ones in the house.

Oh I do that too I sometimes just get really bored listing to the same tracks I have at home and it is really great to listen to the radio to get the latest music or at least get the names of them so that I can add them to my collection and be able to mix it up a bit and have a more enjoyable times listing to a variety instead of same all same all. Yeah we all need it a bit of new music now and then.

I recently just realized how bored I am with my music. But there are a few songs that I have to listen to each day. I've been searching the web for new bands, but I'm coming up empty. Because I think I've found them all, lol. I listen to AOL's radio a lot. You should write down the songs you hear on the radio and look them up on FrostWire.

I always keep listening the same song during a time,because i love that song,which can reflect my feeling.But one month or longer passed,i feel bored of the song,and i change it,i can always find new good songs.But now i just find no songs i could listen to,how can i do?I find a way,don't listen to music for a time,then collect all the songs you are bored of once,listen one by one ,you will feel complex,you can remember so many things and stories.It makes me crasy.Anyhow,searching for new orphean songs is always the best way.

When I am home, I listen to music choice through my cable box. There I can choose which genre of music I want to hear and it is commerical free. I can't help you when you go out, I don't listen to music when I am out.

There are so many radio stations out there that there is always something new to listen to. Try a different sort of music to normal, you might like it.
You could also download music onto an iPod or similar really cheaply and take that around with you, or swap music with friends in a similar position.
You can rent music CDs from most libraries too. If you rented them you could check which you really enjoyed, then spend your limited music budget more wisely by just buying those which really float your boat.

ive reacently became bored of my music aswell so i hunted through my room and found out all my old CD's from what i used to listen to years back,
so i stuck them on my ipod in a playlist and listend to them on shuffle.
it makes a nice change to listening to the same things over and over again,
and by the time i get bored of listening to my old music i can listen to the other stuff again so it all works out in the end :)
