    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.

    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.
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    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.

    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.
