I still listen to radio.I always listen news and songs from radio.In this modern era many people consider radio as a dying media,but its not fully true.While it may be tempting at times to view radio as a dying medium unable to compete with television and the Internet, it is impossible to deny that the radio still retains some cultural significance. Innovation still promises an adaptation of radio to modern times. Whatever the future of radio as a significant medium, its effect on the world has been groundbreaking. With the invention of the radio, the experience available to the common man expanded to cover the whole world, and with it, his awareness. R while the content of radio may not be constant, the social change brought about by radio remains significant and irreversible .

While I don't use the radio too much anymore, I do still use it. If I am driving for a long time, I tend to use it. I use it mostly for news events in my general area because I don't enjoy listening to most of the mainstream music broadcasted by my local radio stations. I guess it's easier for me to multitask rather doing things while watching television or using the Internet.

I have to say I don't listen to the radio that much. But I do listen to it when I'm in the car, or when I'm at my boyfriend's place... his mom always has the radio on, especially for the news and magazine type shows, with some classical music thrown into the mix.

I enjoy listening to the radio. I don't think it's really in competition with TV because they're two different things. You don't have to sit down and watch to know what's going on when you listen to a radio!
As the first of a broadcast media, radio has retained its usefulness for many.
