A local forecast without music?
« on: March 22, 2008, 05:22:49 PM »
The only reason TWC has music is to complement the local forecast.

Is it good to have local forecasts w/o music? That way people won't be distracted from the music and can easily gather their weather info.

To me the music is not distracting, but rather an enjoyable background sound. I would be against removing it.

It would be awkward without it.

We wouldn't have cravings for "what's this song" or unavailable music then

Trying to obtain unavailable music is fun though, even if you don't get what you want.

Collecting hard to ifnd and unaiv music is difficult and tedious, but it is well worth it once you get it.

I prefer D flavors w/o music.

It's expecially great when you obtain the song yourself without any help from others.

There have been a few unavailable or otherwise hard to find songs I've been able to find on my own, but most of the songs I find come from the help of others.
