How do you listen to the majority of your music or talk radio?
Since my radio quit working over a year ago, I've been using my iPod or iPhone in the car. Had my radio continued to live, I had planned on making an iPod adapter using the accessory tape player port in the back of the radio.
music or on the phone
Stream or mp3 on my phone. Or talk radio. Not a big fan of radio friendly music lately.
I'm a media omnivore. Typically it's The Ticket or KXT for me, but I meander over to Sirius or the iPod on road trips. Plus, there's usually a stray CD in the player.
KXT plays a pretty good mix of new/old/indie/funky/weird music - especially late at night. Kinda reminds of KGSR in Austin.
I really wish my car had an 8-track player...
I'm another KXT (91.7) fan. If not KXT, I always have a CD on stand-by.
WRR (101.1) for me.
Here you go Rick. I remember my grandfather had something similar in the glove box of his Delta 88.
Awesome! My grandfather's Olds 98 had an 8-track, as did my cousin's late-70s Ford Ranchero. The Ranchero also had whorehouse-purple velour seats. It was pretty bitchin.
Sirius in the wifes Range Rover
am/fm and tape adapter in the discovery
am/fm and sometimes phone media in the miata. My fav is sirius though. hate local fm but deal with it.
"How do you listen to your music in your car?"
With my ears.
I did the aux mod to my factory Bose and use a bluetooth-to-aux adapter. Works great !I stream mp3s from my phone
How does GogoleMusic/cloudland fit into this?
I put digital, but it could be argued as Hard media - I transfer CDs to a flash drive in WAV (lossless) format. So, I pretty much just replaced a bunch of CDs with a different media type.
My truck has AM/FM only. I will listen to the radio or use a cheap FM transmitter with my phone or ipod. If I am driving for less than 30 minutes, it is radio waves all the way. Longer trips justify setting up all the pieces for other music devices.
Miata has an older Alpine audio DVD player in it. One disc lasted me from Syracuse to Orlando without getting all the way through it, as did a single disc from Orlando to Euless.
Truck has factory Bose that I made a cable to play my iPod shuffle through (not nearly as a Miata aux cable, and no info on the web about it).
I either listen to the radio (NPR, WRR, or KDGE 99% of the time) or stream Rhapsody or Pandora through my phone. Both cars have hardwired aux-in ports.
Sirius (Octane or Bone yard) or a 4 Gig thumb drive stuck in the USB port.
