Something has to go Tyler-either you or your hostility. Choose. I'd prefer the hostility, but it seems to be an integral part of the package.

I wasn't being hostile. I was being serious. Who listens to the radio this day in age, when you have a wide-array of on-demand music options (iPods, MP3 players, services like Napster and Rhapsody, and even the CD)?

That's true Tyler, but we DO need terrestrial radio as emergency back-up.

Seriously.

What's hilarious though, is that I remember saying the same thing at TWC Classics several years ago, and you went into detail why Radio was much better than portable music devices. It's probably still there. :happy:

I actually listen to the radio everyday.  I don't really want/had no intention to invest in an iPod, when I can listen to the music on the radio, and computer. 

KBEA (Top 40 station) is my favorite radio station, that's about it :lol:

While I use iPods, I still listen to the radio all the time.
