spotify's catalogue is crap, if i wanted to hear a bunch of poo poo i know already + heard a million times before i'd buy myself a good ole FM radio

that's my problem with radio apps in general

like, pandora eventually got to a point where it was only songs i had explicitly liked, then spotify radio did the same (but with even fewer songs)

Still better than android clock

user clicks like on a hophop song

better get that list of top 40 songs from the local "r&b" station and fill his playlist, top it off with eminem and suggest an artist he's never heard of like 50 cent or fifty cent or fall out boy

also nothing makes a song i like into a song i can't loving stand than hearing it every two hours. soundgarden was great and all but really, they had twelve albums or something like that can i please hear something other than black hole sun

pandora keeps trying to add dubstep to my 80s-sounding synthesizers station and garbage pop rap to my Bay Area station

That guy is totally basic. He isn't as sophisticated as I am, the former something awful dot com games forum moderator. I have my own custom Bay Area Music spotify list. My jeans are $200 a pair. I drink $12 beers and listen to music you never even heard of, Chad. Who's the loser now? You're so basic.

pandora does kind of suck when you're driving and listening to a new station because you can't thumbs down it, you can only skip it and you only have like 5 skips an hour, and my girlfriend skips everything.

iOS havers, go download TuneIn Radio Pro, it suits many needs for streaming radios. Probably my most used app on the ipad, hell I have a cheap kindle anroid in the kitchen plugged into speakers and that plus spotify are literally the only apps on it.
