With so many bills and paying for cable, I just can't see paying to listen to the radio especially in the car? Is it worth it?

happy Most people who listen to Satellite radio in their cars really like it because then can customise all of the programs to their tastes... These folks tend to be in their cars and on the road a lot, and they don't mind paying for the subscription so much...

The fact is that a simple Ipod and Itunes can substitute very well for Sat- radio for most folks, and save them tons of money in the long run, Mommy!happy

There are so very many free podcast programs they can download that there will never be a shortage of variety...

Here's a sample of the stuff they have over at Podcast Bunker:

And GCAST where you can even create your own podcast show for free and the nusic is really fresh and new...

You are welcome! Me I just stick with whatever radio is in the car. Or we use one of my hubbys jumpdrives. It has whatever music we like on it. And he changes up often.

I do not have satellite radio in my car or in my house. We have a few free radio type stations that come with our DISH service on the television, but I rarely listen to them. A plain old radio works just fine for me.

I have seriously considered it. My Parents live 400 miles away and it is a long drive through country where there is no Radio service and a friend who goes the same way has no problem with reception through the mountains and in the desert. The one of my sisters lives 400 miles north and most of the drive is through mountains where there is no radio. It can get boring listening to the same CD over and over on those trips but then the monthly cost of the satellite service seems so high for what you get.

I'm with you on that!
I could never justify having
music that was just for the car.

Besides the fact, I'm rarely ever
in the car. So it wouldn't really be worth it.

And hubby doesn't listen to music or radio much.

Back when we subscribed to cable,
we had 60 music channels. When I was pregnant
I spent hours listening to that music.
So soothing!

When our daughter was born, we had to
cut expenses, so cable was the first thing to go.

I really missed my music.

Then I found a really neat music player
online from Dizzler.

You enter your favorite song title or artist
name into it and it comes back with all the music
they've ever done. Actual songs and videos.

Then you click on the title and listen to the song
or watch the video.

It's free to listen.

I put a Dizzler player on my Mylot page and run
it in the background while I'm doing other stuff
online.

Lots of fun.

And, it's free so that fits my budget!

No, not likely to sign up for that expense. I can see why some people do, however. The radio can get so dull.

Having a satellite radio is not really an option for me. Yes, it is probably better at playing music and is clearer without the buzzing of the other types of radios but I seldom listen to a radio so it would be a wasted cost. To me in these days and times it is considered a luxury and it is to costly to have to just to listen to for a few minutes a day.
