Do you prefer to listen to CD's or the radio? For me I like listening to the radio more. I have more variety and choices that way. Usually on the CD I don't like all of the songs. Then I have to fast forward to the one that I do like.

Isn't that the pits when you can't get your favorite station to come in?

Hi, moneymommy! You can try opening up another browser and that way you can listen tto music. You can do this while surfing the Internet.

I like both to be honest. Ifm Im really honest i listen to CD'S more, mainly because you can get what you want, as you should have it. But id like to listen to radio sometimes, but would also be on the radio, choosing some songs...woiuld be great..

I don't own very many CD's so most of the time it is the radio for me unless there is something specific I feel like listening too. Then I will pop in a CD. I want to get an Ipod for music though and download some good stuff.

I also like listening to the radio too. I find that I like to listen to the radio because you never know what song is going to come up next, and I am the type that just like to take things as they come. In addition, like you said, you get a good mix in terms of the variety of music as well as the variety of artists. CDs are pretty good too, but I find that CD storage can be an issue for me and I scratch my CDs most of the time anyway. Haha, but amongst all these, my portable iPods are still the one that I like the most, because I can listen to my favorite music wherever I go!

I like CD better than the radio for most of the time. I don't like to listen to the random songs and people talking on the radio, which somehow can disrupt my concentration. AND I like being in control of what I wanted to listen to which I can do better with the CDs. But sometimes when I am really boring, I would choose radio, because sometimes I could listen to now songs in the charts, some songs that I haven't got before and I might be able to download later. LOL.

iPod. The radio talks to much and CD's I usually rip to my hard drive and then I listen to them on my iPod.

Hi, I like to listen to radio broadcast as I can find out about latest songs that I never heard before. I like to record songs using mp4 player so that I can listen to songs that I like repeatedly. I would listen to compilation CDs that contain many nice songs.

HI, I like to listen on the radio as I get to find out about nice but yet never heard before songs. There are a variety of radio channels to choose from. I will record down songs using mp4 player so that I can listen to the song whenever I like. I like to listen to CDs that are a compilation of nice songs.

I also like you, in one cd I do not like all the songs. I often listen to the radio, because radio hits songs played. besides listening to the radio we can know the new tracks.

Hi, Shar19! It is the opposite with me. I would rather listen to CD's. It gives me the chance to listen to the songs that I want to. I don't have to listen to the radio all of the time. Sometimes the radio tends to play the same songs over and over again. And there are times that the radio will not play anything catchy. That is why, I can pull out a CD and listen to what I want. I don't like the fact that I may have to skip through the songs that I want to listen to though.

I like both. My car doesn't have a CD player in it so I am all radio there of course and at home it's a little of both.

Hey Shar19 I would have to say the radio too, especially first thing in the morning with it's jovial banter which you don't get listening to cd's! LOL

I have a lot of CD's but I hardly ever listen to them. I mostly just turn on the radio. Like you, I like to have more variety.

I sometimes listen to internet radio, I have found a station that plays music from a lot of different countries and I enjoy getting to know new music that way. When I find a band or a singer that I like I usually search the name on Youtube later to get to know more of their songs. I have discovered some interesting bands that way Sometimes I listen to my local radio stations instead, but I find them less interesting than the international radio stations. I also enjoy listening to my cds, and I like to listen to my favourite cds in the morning.
