Best version ever!

i dont remember many sound effects, but the testosterone imbued speaker is definitely in one of the big privately-owned rock radios in germany.
one thing that always annoyed me tho is when stations play snippets of really good music in their announcements or adverts, and then resume to playing the boring songs they played the last 3 hours.
Don’t worry, that’s entirely on purpose to keep you listening.

You still hear music on FM radio and not just ads the entire 20 minute car ride?
I live in a small college town in rural ohio. I listen to our local golden oldies radio station in my car because the songs are great, the ads are mostly local businesses, and i get local news from it. Although we also get a lot of Medishare scams, snake oil from supplement companies. But the ads are much better than the radio back when I lived in Houston 10 years ago. Even the Cleveland stations are pretty light on ads these days.
My main gripe with my local station is that the small conglomerate they are in all play Christmas songs at the same time in the winter. I understand the incentive behind synching up ads across your controlled stations, but why do they all insist on playing Christmas carols at the quarter hour across all channels? I fucking hate Christmas carols.

I remember that one station that would advertise that they would play "uninterrupted music" during certain parts of the day. Only to then constantly interrupting it to tell us how they currenlty playing "uninterrupted music".
Remember? That's like half the stations around.
The other half don't do "uninterrupted" blocks -

I think broadcasters are legally required to announce who's broadcasting, at some minimum interval. I know it affects ham radio - because slow-scan image transmissions worked around it by watermarking their callsign in the image. It'd also explain why Sirius XM does it so goddamn often when every receiver already has a screen.

Some industries go 'we have to do [blank] because that's the most popular thing' and some industries go 'we can't do [blank] because everyone else is doing [blank].' Inevitably the latter get infected with executives from the former.

Amazing. That's the most creativity I have seen associated with them.

Many years ago my station of choice when driving to work started running an advert for car safety. The sound effect was a loud blaring car horn and the sounds of screaming tires and a crash. The first, second, third time I heard it was instant jolt of panic and left me jittery. I switched stations after the third time.

And this is part of why I don't listen to the radio while I drive. The other part is because I bought a cheap android stereo and I couldn't be fucked to buy the adapter to hook my antenna up to the stereo.
I guess being lazy is saving me from early morning drive radio jump-scares. -

HA! MAY CAR IS WAAAAAAAY NEWER THAN YOURS!
......2006.
When I bought it, it had an even cheaper android stereo in it. When I was looking for a interim replacement before I spent over £100, I found the one that was installed when I bought it.....for £12.
Ended up with an ~£80 deck that came with a half decent reverse camera, which was almost the only requirement for me other than Bluetooth.
I honestly kinda wish it had come with a tape deck, being on the edge of old I still have a bunch of tapes. Used to have a load of CDRs, but rot got them.
I have about 60Gb of music on my phone, I'll occasionally switch some of it out for new stuff. I had Google Play Music back in what is now considered "The Day" and now I pretty much refuse to use any streaming service. -

Also, this announcement but first: "You're listening to another ad-free power-half-hour on KKKK", with that ad for the station repeated every 10 minutes.
