AWW$HEEET Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 when listening to the radio, do you ever notice that WNCI consistently plays their music a few beats per minute faster than any other station? fecking annoying. I would also like to add that the morning zoo is a shithole of a morning show. bob and tom ftw, and i really dont even like them that much either. at least some of the people they get on there are mildly entertaining. /rant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was saying Bob and Tom are the best of the shittiest. Thats like being the least retarded in your Spec. Ed class. Get it? HOWEVER, the only reason I would ever consider purchasing XM radio is for Howard Stern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 local radio is terrible. I hate to sound like Nitrousbird, but when I'm not listening to MP3's I'm listening to Sirius. It still could use more variety, but Faction and Octane are pretty good, depending on the time of day. I like the music on Faction better, but in the afternoon they have some stupid talk show on.

Tripleskate Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 I don't listen to local radio x2 I'm contemplating buying myself Satellite Radio for a late Christmas gift. Other than that, it's all iPod+aux jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really worth it. Or just get a smart phone with unlimited data and use slacker radio and pandora. That is what I use in my car. Also my smart phone has a big memory card with MP3s on it so I don't even need an iPod. I am all for having only 1 device to carry around.

Earl1647545488 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 I read on a Sirius forum that a listener suspected the same thing, so he played the original song at the same time it came on the radio, and sure enough, after a few seconds, they were out of sync. So SiriusXM does it too. I wonder if they'll start doing that on TV, speeding up the show just a tad in order to squeeze in a few commercials.

Main3s Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 CD's bitches!!! Better then radio, not quite as affective as MP3's And satalite is over rated! The stations are too specific and it's not like they offer anything that new or amazing. Most of what they play is the same shit that's on regular radio (For FREE). And commercials free, my ass. They just promote their satalite radio every other song. No thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unfunnyryan Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 when listening to the radio, do you ever notice that WNCI consistently plays their music a few beats per minute faster than any other station? I noticed this once a few years ago. Listening to the same song start at the same time on 97.9 and 97.1. Needless to say WNCI ended a good 20 seconds before the other station. The quicker you can play songs, the more ads you can fit in in an hour I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Maker Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Did anyone ever notice that WNCI plays shitty music that no one with taste listens to? What are you, a 40 year old woman or tween? I can't imagine anyone else listening to it. CD101 is good. I do really need to get an aux port in my car now that I have an iphone. Pandora FTMFW. The speaker in it was loud enough to hear driving at 75-80 in my mom's car when we drove it back from Florida. But she has a 2007 or 8 RAV4. My 2001 Sunfire has a little more road noise and the built in speaker is not loud enough at high way speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrousbird Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 WNCI = same 8 songs on rotation. But that's what you get for listening to welfare radio. I can't imagine not having my Sirius. Every time I am stuck listening to welfare radio, I can't imagine how people choose to do so. It's just aweful, full of commercials, censored, and they do not play the variety that a single Sirius channel will play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRocket1647545505 Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Commercials ironically make me hate the product trying to be sold most the time. :werd: I want to punch the little girl from the 3C body shop commercials. I'd never take my vehicle there based on the commercials, alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What weird ass crap do you listen to that would be better covered on Sirius / XM over welfare radio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJ Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 What weird ass crap do you listen to that would be better covered on Sirius / XM over welfare radio? Country. The selection on XM/Sirius is absolute crap. There is 1 modern country station and the rest is crap. The only thing worth it in that genre is the Bluegrass station, but NPR does 3 bluegrass shows per week or I can just turn on my iPod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
