Do you prefer listening to the radio, CD's or watching music channels??

I prefer listening to CD's as I know what songs are going to be on, I dont like listening to all the adverts on the radio station. If they had a radio station with out all the adverts that would be great!! I often flick through the music channel just to see what songs are playing, I enjoy the countdown ones - 100 best love songs, best RnB songs stuff like that as they range from various years and some songs bring back happy memeries. Which do you prefer???

I prefer listening to CDs so I know exactly what I am listening to and when the songs are, etc. I like the element of control that you don't have with the radio and music channels. Radio can be fun sometimes, but I mostly like the talking (Russell Brand style) and not the music. The adverts on radio annoy me and there are rarely any songs I enjoy on music channels.

I like all 3 mediums! I enjoy radio sometimes when I want to listen to something different. Or if I'm working out I will put on a mixed cd of songs and when I;m bored I'll listen to the music channels on television.

I do prefer to listen to songs I pick out myself rather than tv or radio music channels. One it will be all music I like and two I don't have to listen to all those commercials.

If I am looking for music, I will not turn on the radio at all. Cds are my only source. The element of surprise can be easily arranged by inserting a few cds and jumbling their play order. IMHO, radio deejays talk too much but share so little these days. The only time I would turn on the radio is if I want jazz in the deep of the night. Our jazz/classical station is non-stop playing and the deejays speak very softly and keep their speeches short and concise.

If I am tired of listening to the same stuff every time I listen to the radio to discover more and If I like a song very much i'll listen to it many times straight from the CD. But music channels aren't playing my kind of music - heavy metal(the pure stuff).

I much prefer to listen to music on Itunes on my computer, I have all my cds loaded into Itunes so it's so easy to mix and match, shuffle and play albums from a touch of the button, then I can download them onto my Ipod. I don't like watching video on tv or listening to the radio. I always have my computer on, so there is always music on.

I listen to the radio more than anything. I have trouble keeping track of CD's. I used to like to watch the video's, but they don't play them like they used to.

I hardly ever watch music channels on tv. I do like to listen to the radio though. We have several channels with no commercials at all. I like those the best. There are some programmes that I like particularly well and i try to listen to those. But mostly I will listen to CDs or music on my laptop.

I listen to the music I have on my computer, I know I like it all and if there is anything new out I will usually hear it when the radio is on in the car or my son will come and say listen to this song Mum I think you'll like it! xxx

I would rather listen to my own CD's. We have no radio stations that play decent music in my area, so I skip right over them to CD's. and as for Music Channels, I usually try to catch Headbanger's Ball or Talking Metal.

I prefer listening to internet. Because on internet has every kind of music I want to listen. Too many songs I want to hear don't have on CD or others. So I find it on internet. Everybody shared the songs they like to others want to enjoy.

Every morning, I'm listening to the radio in my car along the way to my work place. I prefer listening to the radio because I will know that news, the new songs and the discussion from everyone in my country. I also can learn something from the radio channel. That's nice. I like listen to the music. So, if I heard which song is nice from the radio, I will go to buy the CD's. Beside that, I don't like to watch the music channels. Because I enjoy listen to the music besides close my eyes and lay down on bed or chair. That's wonderful.

I prefer listening to CD's that I have put together myself from favorite songs off of my collection of CD's that way I'm listening to songs I chose. Sometimes I want to listen to a certain type of music from different artists and other times I want to listen to different songs from the same artist depending on my mood and putting together my CD's was a perfect solution.

I'll listen to my collection of music over any radio station. The only radio I can bear is talk radio, music stations grind out the most boringly turgid stream of carefully marketed sanitised'hits'.
