Dial Up. Yeah I know the sound and I know the time it took to load anything with. But it's something I won't ever miss having. I would much rather be on a 1MB connection if I had to choose between that or dial up ever again. I also hated how easy it was to be kicked off, if anyone called the phone, you were off it in seconds.

I still listen to the radio in my car even though I have Bluetooth. My car is an older model and there are times when it will stop auto connecting and I'll have to connect it again. So, I'd rather just listen to the radio

It's not too bad. My favorite radio stations so far are 98.7 The Gator and NPR. As for commercials I mostly tune them out, but some I find pretty humorous and entertaining.

I personally prefer silence over radio.
