Had I not been given a company car years ago when I was living and working in Windsor, ON, I likely…read morewould have never explored the world of satellite radio. I had my shows that I enjoyed on the radio and realistically on longer drives the radio ends up being background noise to keep you company. However, once I had Sirius I was hooked. Starting my day with Howard Stern for the longest time was a great way get to work. Then throughout the day I could move from genre to genre, station to station with as the mood struck me. Easily my most listened to stations are Classic Vinyl, Pearl Jam Radio, Altnation, and Lithium. But with so many options there is something for everyone. It does behave much like a radio, so there is no choice in the songs they play which for a service you pay for it might be a feature worth investing in. MySiriusXM allows you to essentially bookmark your fave artists or specific songs when their on the radio and then you're notified when they are coming up on another station. In addition if you want to go back and re-listen to a song you can click repeat or rewind a station for as long as you've been listening to the channel - that's all though. What sucks is if you change channels or come on at the end of a song you want to hear you can't rewind backwards. Customer service has been OK from my perspective, I don't need them for much other than swapping around my accounts when I moved from car to car. I've had a lot of issues with the mobile app and the internet streaming radio, 9/10 times it seems to not recognize my user name or password for my account. Howard Stern isn't free of commercials (in fact I would say there are just as many commercial spots if not more... and LONGER) when you're listening to his channels. So don't by into the commercial free radio bit. Overall it's a "nice to have" but I don't mind the radio, so if I ever need to make a purchase decision SXM will be the first to go, $20/mo is ok but to only have access for short car rides now, i don't know if it's worth it

Good radio station catering to audiences who enjoyed songs from the late 90s 'til the present…read more Very frequent rotation though on current Top 40 hits, but I guess that's the point of charting songs based on airplay. My concern though is how selective the songs they play. Not much country (not sure if they even played Morgan Wallen's Last Night with 16 weeks at Billboard #1 at its belt). Never played Kendrick Lamar's Not Like Us which was big in 2024, although being about Canadian Drake is obviously a reason.

Sometimes it's so huge, that the traffic gets stopped on Yonge. And that is boss!

I love new and old…read moreCanadian rock/indie music so I was overjoyed to find that they play a ton of bands and singer-songwriter types from Canada and all over the world. They also play a pretty eclectic mix of old funk, classic rock, retro 80s and other stuff, which is majorly expanding my musical IQ. Unlike a certain other radio station that has been playing the same 500 songs on repeat for the past 15 years, heavy rotation at this station means playing a song once in the morning and once in the afternoon for about a month or so. Then it's on to the next new song. Bonus: they play tracks from the whole album, not just the singles. I don't actually listen to any of the other shows (I prefer to listen to CBC radio 1 than their classical shows) so I can't speak to how good they are. Frankly, I love that the station has such a great range in music they play, so that someday when I get over the trauma of childhood piano lessons, I will have a good station in which to enjoy classical music.

I avoid, or let's say, can't stand the pop-rock and news banter they have forced on us. I will…read morelisten to Tempo, but the oft repeated classical play list and breathy banter of the hostess puts it strictly in the background. Tempo is followed by Tom Allen at 1 PM, and we get one good hour of intelligent classical programming, like a combo of Goth and Kerr in the old days, before he sneaks in some light pop music and sets the stage for 8 hours of pop-rock with inane stale news comments. So, there is one good hour of classical programming, and a fairly interesting night line up of jazz and Signal until midnight. The rest of the programming is expensively produced drivel with declining ratings. Too bad we have to pay for it. edit April 4 2015. CBC 2 has improved their Saturday and Sunday offerings, with Pietro, Kathryn Duncan, and others, so I am upgrading from 1* to 3*. I hear that their ratings have tanked since the pop/rock formula came in. They could possibly regain their stature if they dropped commercialized pop format with stupid news comments that are stale by the time they get to air.

We were either listening to CHFI 98.1 or CHUM FM. I associate CHFI whenever I visit my dentist these days. I listen to CHUM FM mostly in the mornings. Growing up, it was the Roger, Rick, and Marilyn show in the morning. Rick Hodge resigned. Roger and Marilyn continued until Roger retired. Darren B. Lamb joined the morning crew, but also resigned. Jamar and Marilyn were great, but he moved to the afternoon drive with Josie Dye. It's now Marilyn and David, which has also been great. Marilyn seemed like a permanent fixture and beacon of light for nearly forty years. She announced this morning that she'll be leaving the radio station and the morning program this summer. She has had a wonderful career. I'll miss her voice in the morning. After forty years, I can see that she wants to sleep in and do something different! I love listening to Ruby Carr when she starts her show at 9 am. I normally have a bunch of meetings throughout the morning, so I normally catch bits of her show. I also like Azalea Hart. She does nights. Sometimes, she's works weekends. Some format changes have been weird. There used to be a sixty-second news break. It has disappeared. There's What's Trending? It's not the same, though. It has more of an entertainment spin than news. Traffic reports continue, which I appreciate when I head into work on Wednesdays. I don't mind the music that this station airs. Sure, some songs are played ad nauseam. Eventually, it'll stop. I typically stream this station on my phone. Otherwise, if I'm in my car, the FM channel has this station as a favourite. (95)
