    It is SO hard.  Five minutes of commercials for every two songs.

    AM is good for people who drive a lot. You get tired of hearing the same songs over and over on regular radio. AM has lots of talk radio. But of course know we have SIRRUS radio so much more to choice from.

    I am too. But it is getting cheaper. Can get it for $60 a yr.  I don't have it either. But if I were in the car all day. I would have it.

    Me, too.  Since I only drive a few hours a week, I don't need to spend money on music - the radio is good enough.

    Only if I want to be bored or hear the noon news while sitting in the car.  The few AM stations that are accessible around here are either talk radio or spanish.

    99% of what I listen too on the radio is AM. I get unbiased news reports and talk shows from the local stations. Most of the music played on FM stations here can be used as compost. :)

      Yes, mostly sports, talk radio, old-time radio, a legal show and a computer/electronics show. (No sandwich-chat or tilde hour, though.  Grrrrr.)

    Sometimes ballgames are on AM.  Also, local talk radio is sometimes very informative....both current events and sports talk.

    Does that mean you can't listen to AM?

    No.  It means that I don't listen to AM.
