What do you listen to while driving
Do you prefer the radio, or the sound of your music player? Do you use CDs?
Maybe you like to drive with the window down.
I personally drive an older car, and only have a radio installed. But it works, and I love it. I also don't own an Ipod or any other music player --- yet, at least.
*Also, what kind of car do you drive? Or what kind of car do you commute in?

I drive a 2002 impala, it has a CD player but I don't really use it. I have one CD which a friend made when a group of ours went to a petting zoo/hay ride farm for a part of our college class, so we listened to it then and he let me keep it. I've used it a few times. But normally I just listen to a classic rock station
@metaghost4: hottie*
watashi listen to kpop~~
Parents singing in the car to their CDs full of old Chinese music. Ooogh~! >:[
The radio in my 1993 LeBaron works intermittently, so most of the time I listen to the songs from my mp3 player via a crappy mini speaker.
When the radio does work though, radio all the time.
Aux cord to my iphone.
I don't drive yet but what me and my dad like to hear is that beautiful engine purr. We got an STi
[quote=TrueAtheist]I just got a new sound system for my car, I downloaded "top 1000 hip hop songs of all time" and I have it on shuffle.[/quote]
That sounds awesome. What's your setup?
I just connect my player to my phone (not from apple) and play w/e's on my playlist, but sometimes I listen to the radio for good stuff Depending on what song, I'll either blast it in side (regardless of having passengers or not), or play it with a low, soothing volume. Very rarely I feel like being a major dbag and roll down the music while blasting insane techno/girlish pop for everyone to hear, but it happens <3 I also drive a nissan gtr
radio

i started burning Cds, so CD > Radio
If I'm with friends, I generally let them plug their phone in and we listen to some of their music.
If I'm by myself, I drive with the windows down blasting the metal station on Sirius radio.
Whatever comes on Songza, I'm not picky.
I crashed and totaled my car back in November and still don't have a car since, hoping for one within the next month.
But I have this radio transmitter thing that plugs into my ipod through auxiliary and then plays my music through an empty radio station, like FM 88.7. It works.
I used to listen to my iPod I still do sometimes but I don't have something to plug into anymore so it really depends whether I can find my earphones before I leave =P.
Nowadays I usually listen to the radio or I just sing to myself. =P

I don't
Every time I listen to anything while driving, I end up getting distracted and screwing up directions
I just listen to the radio.
[quote=natalie]before uni started, i drove all the time and only listened to the radio. now that i take public transit my music comes from other people's music being too loud for their own good. nice variety, different genre every time[/quote]
Gave me a good giggle.
I use my iPod to listen to music in my car, a 2007 Toyota Rav4. Music usually by Jason Chen, J.Reyez, D-Pryde, Justin Timberlake, 2NE1, A$AP Rocky, or 2Chainz.

I've been using CDs for a while, I can play White Walls by Macklemore all day err day. In a few days when I get my new pioneer receiver I'll be listening to music through my ipod classic (with the new speakers that I also got <3)
i usually listen to the radio until one of the following happens:
-i'm really sick of hearing the same songs
-nothing good is on
-i'm too far away to use my presets (usually don't feel like seeking new channels when idk what they are)
then i'll listen to my CDs.
i have a 1995 geo prizm and a 2000 chevy metro i'm learning to drive (stick). the metro doesn't have a CD/tape/aux though. yet. so i'll kinda miss that when i get rid of my prizm.
My 2001 cavalier has a stock stereo and I broke my FM transmitter so I'm stuck with CDs I've been listening to for months
but I'm going to be looking for a new car in 2 weeks that will definitely be new enough to have aux/usb inputs

I listen to a lot of those artists as well! Cigarettes by LBC is one of my favorites. Some of those artists are a little "out there" for my taste, but the rest is right there on the money.

I listen to my parents nagging at me on how bad my driving is, that's what I listen to

That's actually, admittedly, kind of awesome.
@other poster, yeah I guess there isn't much on the radio. But i have fell in love with country music because of it. I have 4 different stations that I switch to. Surprisingly, all 4 of them have been on commercial before. That's why I have a couple of other fall back pop/oldies stations to fall on.
I don't listen to radio. My CD player doesn't work.
