DAB Radio station me up, fellow blues 08:48 - Feb 20 with 6196 views | artsbossbeard | I'm a big 6 Music fan but I can't abide Mary Ann Hobbs who is sitting in for the next two weeks at this time. Don't want sport, don't want tons of adverts just some decent tunes. Think 6 Music without Mary Ann Hobbs. | |

I've cheated by using the tune-in app on my Sonos set up (now with added Alexa integration). The radio world is my oyster. | |

To be fair it depends on how good the radio are I think. I've got a couple of Pure Evokes and wherever I take them the quality is 100%. ABB - listen to some good chat on LBC. | |

Mine is a Pure Evoke! But I have had it for about 16 years so maybe it's just bggered. | |

I am a recent convert too. Then carry on listening in the car etc etc. Best money I have spent for ages. Now going through old albums I used to listen to years ago. Even creating my own playlists etc.... Brilliant with Sonos Alexa - resume Spotify in the Kitchen | |

Off the back of this, I've actually boxed up loads of CD's and they're off to ziffit. New storage space aplenty at Beard Towers. | |

Camden based station just playing loads of good music and no chat. I agree 're Mary Ann Hobbs also. Edit: apparently cdnx is now nme radio. [Post edited 20 Feb 2018 13:25]

I'll have a look out for that one then. Not really found much in the way of additional stations with internet radio so far. | |

Yep, two weeks hols for Keaveny. I'm hoping Mary has only got a week to cover as I can't wake up to her softly spoken tones. [Post edited 20 Feb 2018 15:42]

Internet radios have gone down in price quite considerably in recent years. Loved my DAB when I got mine in 2008, but the selection of UK radio is painfully poor. 6Music has died a slow & painful death from its glorious inception. (Bloody playlists?!? Are you kidding me? The sole point of 6Music was distancing itself from R1, R2 & every commercial station in the land). I don't want to hear the same song getting plugged 4 times a day on a playlist. WFMU (NYC) & KEXP (Seattle) are the radio stations you need to be listening to. But as you say, purchase a Sonos speaker, pair that with your Android or IPhone & you've got the all the Worlds radio stations at your fingertips. [Post edited 20 Feb 2018 20:49]

On the odd occasions I listen to 6 music during the day it is pretty tedious, certainly in the morning. The evening stuff still tends to be varied and random. I'll note those two stations down and have a listen though, cheers. | |
