Do you listen to FM or AM radios?

It all depends on what I want to listen to. For news and sports I listen to AM. For music I either listen to FM. So it's probably more FM than AM.

Or I'll just turn on my CD changer. It's an FM-modulated changer that requires me to tune my radio to 88.1 FM to listen. I wouldn't be surprised if this non-existing radio station (in the Philadelphia market anyway) is higher rated than some of the shittier stations in the area.

i never listen to news on the radio. come to think of it... i never watch the news on TV either! it's cartoons cartoons and cartoons!

My mom listens to 610 WTBN AM all the time. (Ohio only)

That's my dad's favorite radio station. Whenever my dad comes and picks me up from school, I always have to listen to Korbee and the Gang talk about where they went to lunch that day. Puts me to sleep in five minutes.

I personally prefer FM to AM, because FM plays better music than AM.

I listen to FM, but not for music...I listen to the BBC World Service on a community radio station, as well as other programs on that and other community radio stations. If there is nothing worth listening to on the community radio stations, I switch to the news on AM. If Art Bell or some other mindless babble is on AM, I listen to music on FM as a last resort. My radio habits drive cyberkitten nuts.

FM is SO more better than AM because all AM plays is country.:thumbsdn:
Anyway, I normally dont listen to the radio unless Im in the car

Go Masamune!!!:thumbsup:

I listen to FM radio when I do have it on.
Like working in the garage I may have it on.
In the car will go through the presets for anything worth listening to, then hit a tape.
AM has only country and news.

same here...

Fuck all of Radio.

Internet radio is for me. ^_^ I get my fill of the music I like on Digitally Imported, Smoothbeats or MusicOne...maybe some npr thrown in for good measure.

I chose FM, since the local FM stations are generally more interesting than the local AM stations. One of my favorite ones makes up parodies of songs and commercials to make fun of the local government, and they get paid to make prank phone calls on request by people who want to give a surprise to someone else.
