Just wondering what people are are using.

NOW: Ipod, some radioBEFORE: CD's, some radio

As of yesterday, iPod and iPod only.

CDs and Sirius here... I hate FM...it sucks. Commercials suck.

I picked cassette, but it is usually some external audio device played through the tape deck. sometimes a laptop, sometimes an mp3 player.other than that, FM, and then CD

Used to be cds until I got an iPod for Christmas, then Jim got me the iPod2car for an after Christmas gift...I NEVER listen to radio, and I finally took ALL of my cds out of the car, so now I have to listen to the iPod.

iPod iPod iPod, though I find myself listening to a lot of audio books and radio shows (old and new) that I get from various sources these days. With the exception of public radio, FM radio doesn't play to my fuddyduddy over-40 age group, and I haven't worked out the bugs with my AM radio reception yet on my aftermarket radio - but hey I can live without AM radio, believe me.

i used to listen to CD's until I got Sirius radio. Now I listen to Sirius almost exclusively. Hair Nation and Buzzsaw rock!!!

XM Radio in the car and at home...mostly channel 164 (Radio Classics)

XM (Ethel, Lucy, The System, Squizz) + Whatever MP3's I have on my CarPC I feel like listening to.

8 TRACK Sorry could not help my self. LOL nuvibe

I try to use my ears to listen to the muzak......ok, I'm being a smart-as*Mostly XM and FM these days...

XM about 80% of the time; CD's the rest. Hardly ever listen to FM, except for NPR on public radio.

I cancelled XMradio, Because they got rid of the only station I really listened to. My daughters bought me a little contraption from a WOOT sponser that turns any USB flashdrive into an MP3 player and transmits it to your FM radio.

I do still listen to XMonline, because they still play the station that they cancelled there. XM31 The Torch

XM radio for me now I am upset though that they got rid of channel 148 (soccer channel)

I would like to add "MP3 CD Player"I mostly listen to MP3's burned on a CD.

My left ear. Right ear has been damaged by very loud "music". Makes it almost imposible to hear the wife.

When I drive around town I usually have the radio set to the local college station. They play some pretty good alternative bands, non of that crappy pop/rock stuff they have today. On long drives I have my MP3 player.

It worries me that with more an more people simply listening to their 'iPods' that there will be drastic reduction in new, local bands making it any bigger. All we'll get is what's been pushed in iTunes or whatever.I like the radio as it introduces me to stuff i know i'd never have heard otherwise....at least in the Toronto area there are stations like that.I've lived in the Baltimore/DC area and I agree that radio can suck pretty bad in some places!

Here is a great alternative while at the computer. This is thier motto...Free Form Underground Rock is alive and well on Radio Free Phoenix. With over eight thousand songs and growing. RFP was created in response to the dwindling freedom of expression on the FM airwaves--now a collection of cookie cutter formats with the same small box of songs over and over again in a repetitive circle. Radio Free Phoenix breaks free of corporate radio madness and forges forward with a great new station with the heart, soul and passion that once peppered the great underground rock stations of the pasthttp://radiofreephoenix.com/

I usually listen to my cd's, but I do listen to my XM every now and again.

I have used my wifes Ipod a few times in my Vibe and I am trying to decide if I should get my own Ipod or subscribe to XM Satellite Radio.

CD player as for some reason the sound when playing my ipod is crap...

CD's here, all the way. Screw radio, I have absolutely no use for the crap programming that one has to endure thanks to radio being taken over by one truly evil corporation. Radio is useful though, I love NPR. And FM gives me a frequency to transmit with my Sirius receiver and iTrip. One of these days when I get rich, I'd love to upgrade to the version of my stock stereo that does MP3's so I don't have to juggle CD's so much but that'll probably never happen.

XM satellite radio and i-pod.

I listen to the slick sound of my K&N intake, it sound soooo gooood.

FM modulator with USB input. Have 1Gb flash drive with 250 songs playing thru the radio...and NO commercials. And....since they're songs I picked, I LIKE ALL OF THEM!!

Mainly factory XM but sometimes on longer trips i use the laptop to listen to MP3's

Dumb question of the day from a person that is semi-technologically literate:Ok, I have an 06 with the 6 disc setup. I love it, but have so many cds and ecclectic tastes that I was thinking about either an ipod (but not liking apple setup right now) or the laptop mp3 idea. Question is, is this possible without getting a new stereo.... I really want to keep the 6 disc system. I don't have an ipod and not sure I want one that bad, but have the laptop, how would this work?

In my car, I listen to my MP3 player.Wife's car, MP3's on CD. Doesn't really matter though, because it's really the same thing either way. My MP3 player has all four albums of the only band I really listen to (HUM), and the same 4 albums are also burned to one CD for when I am in the wife's car. So, regardless what I drive, I still listen to the same thing.

Now 99% of the time im listening to CD's, .5% im listening to the radio, and the other .5% is a 1G MP3 through a FM transmitter.

i mainly use my radio and cds now...i used to use the xm a lot but now i hardly do.
