Through The 70's, radio lost it's fun, and the biggest pain for me as a kid was hearing stations change formats for the worst (AM stations going Talk or Big Band, FM stations moving from Rock to Easy Listening). The once-cool AM stations going from Rock to Easy Listening in The 70's was the first of many dominoes of the fall of regular Rock Radio.

Still...Internet/Streaming Radio has proven that Radio has outlets for Underground music and all kinds of great sounds from all Genres. I see getting on board The Internet as a way to escape the the Mass Media, and a good way to voice support. "Normal" radio I hardly listen to unless I'm at work. I usually catch Web Radio.
Yes, I love internet-streaming radio. Last.fm is great, and so is Pandora. There are also some more good ones. Do you have any suggestions?
