Do you carry FM radio with you?

I have seen this craze these days. Hundreds of thousands of youths nowadays carry FM radio with them. Those who have FM radio in their mobile phone don't need to carry it with them. They can enjoy the programs in the built in radio in their mobile phone.
I have noticed, with the advent of FM radio the nature of radio programs has also changed. The presenters of the FM radios try to prove themselves oversmart. To do this, most of the time they distort the language and words. Somtimes they do not articulate a word in a natural way. Instead, they pronounce words in their own way. I hate this type of hypocrisy.
So, I have stopped crying FM radios with me. What about you?

I think listening to radio is great as it keep you connected with the world and keep you company. I like to listen t o radio but I dont have a radio FM by itself. I use the car's radio or the Internet radio to listen to music. I'm thinking of adding a satellite radio to my car or the portable satellite radio so I can carry it anywhere. At many times though I use the iPod instead of the radio but the radio has its own touch as it has live shows and you can interact by calling and participating :D if I'm bored with my lists of music, I'd switch on the radio as a way of listen to things that I dont already know.
I think your point about hypcrisy is right to some point as I prefer ONLY music to many of the shows played on the radio especially the channels that relay on SMS and talk shows that involves someone telling you what the SMS or emails said!!!
Thanks for sharing.
and Happy MyLotting

I don't really listen to the radio that much since the music I like does not play on the radio. I like opera, oldies, metal rock, and international music. I don't really have a problem with people carrying around utilities with FM radio as long as it doesn't cause a nuisance. For example, I wouldn't want a person to play any music too loudly on the bus.

Now the programme of FM radio is new to us.We can't accept new things easily.FM radios have to compit with TV channels.In TV we see picture,voice and glamor of the artists.But the only weapon of FM radio is voice.By various style of voice FM radio attracts the listeners.So they some times distort their language.FM radio has already gain a place to the listeners.We can't ignore it.

I don't carry one but I do have radio stations from around the world on my cell phone. The site is moodio.fm I believe and people get to add radio stations to the database, to their list, and then become able to listen to it anywhere. I have Nigeria and Asian radio stations. There are some American ones I'm interested in but i haven't decided on what to get because I want to finish getting more African radio stations.

I never need to carry a FM radio with me because my mobile phone has the feature of listening to FM radio and thus whenever I go out, I usually take my Mobile phone with me and whenever I need to hear to FM radio, I can do it easily with the help of my mobile phone.

I agree..
Those satellite noise is really distorted and makes me irritated too. And I just off the radio once it's like that.
It has been quite a long time since I've carried an FM radio. Nowadays, I just listen to a good dosage on the net or just through my cellphone. But when the noise starts again for my cell, I'll off it and switch on to listen songs instead..

I don't carry it with me any more because the phone that I have at the moment those not have it. But I had a phone that had it and I liked it because there were times I got tired of hearing the songs I had in it so I turned would use the FM radio. When I listen to radio in the mouse or the car is always in FM I guess there are more option than in AM.

it's very romantic to carry and listen to FM radio , i think. i like radio very much but now i take less and less time to listen to it . Listenning to radio makes people calm in heart . i don't think you can take care of other's activities too much . Just let them go and be yourself if you like radion in yourself

I myself have a built in FM radio in my mobile phone and I do listen to the various programs that come on it. It is a stress-buster of sorts when stuck in traffic jams. But one thing which I find irritating is the RJs or the radio jockeys trying to be one up on each other and in the process the music itself is paid less often and we have to endure the constant tattle of the RJs.
But apart from this minor glitch there are a few music programs which are really good and I try to follow them as far as possible.

No, I don't carry FM radio. But, I would have the radio on when I am driving. FM stations are my favorites. It's nice relaxing with the radio on. The radio stations in my City are very good, with very ratings in the Province. They play many of my favorite songs too !

I don't carry FM radios. In fact, I don't even listen to radio that often because I hate the commercials and it's rather annoying. I much prefer carrying around my iPOD. I can listen to whatever songs I want to whenever I want to instead of having to deal with whatever's playing at that point.
