And What About Radio Stations?

[Gringoboy]

Aspen as I can get enough of Duran Duran, George Michael and Boy George ....

Should have said can't get enough.......whatever..

Which is why we have internet radio, thank the heavens!

We listen to NPR ( national public radio) from Seattle.

How? Via Internet or is it carried by a radio station in BsAs? And if the latter what is the frequency?

Thanks, Bob

No ads, lots of Jazz (100% jazz around 3pm Buenos Aires), women speak with a soft voice

Could you provide the frequencies of some jazz stations?

Thanks, Bob

I listen to iTunes. Bought a bunch of music over the years and they have streaming songs as well (you don't pay for and can skip a certain amount of songs per hour), to pick by category. For the car, I create CDs from iTunes purchased music.

One of my sisters-in-law uses Deezer instead of iTunes, streaming music for a nominal charge.

I, also, don't like the radio stations available here.

That's unfortunately the only one I listen to on a constant basis.
But on the page (link at the end), you can access the previous 100% jazz broadcasts. They are interesting because they often air tunes which are not very known, like for August 16:
19h01 : PNO JOHNNY O NEAL - I Ll Be Tired Of You
19h06 : SHELLY MANNE/ANDRE PREVIN/LEROY VINNEGAR - Collard Greens And Black Eyed Peas
19h14 : ART PEPPER - You D Be So Nice To Come Home To
19h19 : BAS CLOVIS NICOLAS/TRP RILEY MULHERKAR/SAX LUCA STOLL/GUI ALEX WINTZ/PNO TADATAKA UNNO - None Shall Wander
19h25 : ROY HARGROVE - Serenity
19h31 : CBA HENRI TEXIER QUARTET - Terra Negra
19h35 : KAREN MANTLER/BAS DOUG WIESELMAN/KATO HIDEKI - That Dawn Volcano
19h40 : MARCIN WASILEWSKI TRIO - Ballad Of The Sad Young Men

I haven't turned on a TV in this city in over a year andi don't think that I've ever turned on the radio.

About once a year (or 2), I'll try to listen to "Morning Becomes Eclectic" from KCRW, but I just can't find the ganas to listen to a whole program.

But this is nothing new. I remember a three hour road trip when I was 19 where I arrived at my destination without having turned on the radio. And I was alone for the drive... and this was WAY before cell phones.

I listen to https://www.radioparadise.com, http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0072ky7 and a bunch of podcasts mostly.

I did subscribe to Spotify for a year or so but dumped it and started a netflix subscription instead.
