Jazzercise is the only place I hear popular music. Sometimes I like it well enough to download it. I love classical, blue grass and folk music. My wonderful local NPR station is my main source, though sometimes I nose around on iTunes.
I listen to classical music on the PBS radio stations or listen to CD’s of music from past years and even turn the TV to the channel line-up station that scrolls the channel line-up with background classical music. The only other acceptable option is to watch programs on Public Broadcasting, when available.
JJ, I’m even more behind the times, but love classical, opera, and NPR period. International music fascinates me, too.
Right now, I have a fabulous collection of LP from the International Preview Society (great conductors, greatest labels, et al) and want to put my own LPs on DVDs - my expensive and expansive collection will be reduced to a few DVDs - but I love the digital sound and our computers are perfect for that, free!
But, how to do it, other than buying a $350. machine that "transfers" the LPs to DVDs. No one will do them b/c of copyright law, and I agree with that, but I purchased mine, played them each only 1-time to records them onto my own cassettes, so now want to preserve what I purchased.

Anyone have any ideas? ;-))
