Every now and then I'll find some pop one off that actually interests me, for everything else that the local stations get there hands on is played to death. AT first you can appreciate it for what it is, but after hearing it for the twentieth time in a four hour shift makes you want to bust the radio. Used to be a fan of the country stations but they do the same shit as the two pop stations. Can't really listen to much country anymore cuz of them.

They play stuff to death here also. Radio 1 has the "management playlist" that DJ's have to adhere too. Consequently you listen to the same shit every hour on the hour. Just pitiful.

Yeah except for the one or two songs you actually want to listen to. Which is good I guess since when they are played you're happy about it. It makes it hard to discover new groups to listen to since they only play one song per cd. Plus variety dies then due to people just wanting to make money. I don't mind synthesized instrumentals, but you can't all do synthesized instrumentals every time.

Try streaming KEXP. Fairly diverse programming and one of the last actual commercial free stations.
