Sadly, even neutral music stations have way too many commercials and not enough selection rotation. There are songs that stay on for 3 years. It's horrible.

Check out WFMU out of NJ. Not sure what frequency they broadcast on because I use their app, but they have four stream at pretty much any given time, and it's all freeform; no bullshit corporate radio.

I'm kinda new to it; found it just a few months ago. Definitely enjoying it though! Mostly been listening to Wake and Bake.

There's a random archive selector which is probably my most used bookmark

Gotta check out those 9am-noon time slots. Garbage time and Kens show are my some of my favs

Heard Diane for the first time yesterday; that was a cool show. I'm usually listening to podcasts later in the day, but maybe I'll venture into some other WFMU content instead.

Try commercial free sun radio out of Austin. You can stream it.

So, around 2008 I got onto the Amazon MP3 craze. Now Amazon is making it hard to buy MP3's and is forcing their own poor streaming selections.

I'd rather listen to my purchased songs in a playlist. I do like some broadcasts, but it's not my goto.

Ironically, I feel the FIOS music stations do a better job than all other mediums in the case for variety.
