And this is the glory of satellite and digital radio. I've been looking 
into Sirius (weep) and XM, as I'm about to get a (gasp!) minivan and 
thus feel like it at least merits a good sound system, and they're 
amazing. Specialized stations for adult alternative,  80s alternative, 
showtunes, etc. No need to accept the dweeby station that allows the 
playing of Depeche Mode right after Debbie Gibson (who is v nice, but 
did a bunch of songs that were clearly designed to disgust her peer 
group).

Of course, it still means I'm out of it when it comes to knowing about 
Today's Music, but I learn names of bands on livejournal and thus feel 
like I have a clue.
