I just cancelled my kPig subscription. I love the music, but the ‘hog call’, pig-squealing, etc just got really old. I have found pretty good free options, so wifey said no mas.

been listening to WXPN out of Philly the last few days, good tunes. They're doing a top 2020 songs countdown, they're at like number 1500 right now, quite a ways to go.

So I was kinda semi-sorta following the top 2020 songs of all time list on WXPN, heard bits and pieces of it. I randomly clicked in and they were just starting the top 10. Did you know that Thunder Road is the best song in rock and roll history? Neither did I. pfft. boo. But Philly's next to Jersey...so, yeah.

Used to listen to KPIG a lot over the air when I was living in the Santa Cruz mountains. Mainly because there was little choice, but I did like their music choices.
Listened for awhile over the internet after I left the area, but when they started charging for subscription I let it drop too.
These days, can’t say I listen to radio for music much at all. Got a bunch of flash drives with downloaded music that I cycle through. Mainly listen to the radio for news.

We're the exact opposite there. I like curated music, where a good dj is connecting things in some fashion that may include music that I don't know and may or may not like. My hard drive was full a couple years ago and I spun off nearly 150 gigs of music to an external hard drive and I haven't accessed it once.
I've heard a lot of it, here and there, played by someone else in a different context and in that way it seems fresh. Random access to archived music on a hard drive/cloud/whatever is just kind of stale to me.

Dang... I did not know that. Tells you how little I tune in these days.
I do check them out at the end of the year for the “best of the year” lists. They used to include links to Spotify and iTunes but nit this year for some reason.
Anyway, the lists are the best way I know to discover new music:

Been a while since I've thought about it, but I believe the bloodline runs something like...
KSAN -> KFAT -> KPIG - Radio Paradise
Not a bad lineage.
It's radioparadise.com for me these days - good mixed bag of real music, no Cheezy Whiz.

If you like jazz, check out kmhd. Really good "out of the box" type jazz from Mount Hood Community College.

WNRN in Charlottesville VA is awesome, they do blocks like a college station and their music selection is amazing. Of particular mention is their Saturday 9 am - 11 am show “The Grateful Dead and Phriends Show” — two guys do a wake and bake with live Dead bootlegs, then for the last hour switch to jam bands.

WFMU is great.
I got turned on to Cool Blue Flame late in 2020 and have been listening religiously. Described as: "Postwar atmospherica. High bop modernism and Afro-Latin sounds, twilight exotica and soundtrack moods, soul stompers and weepers, hypnotic R&B and blues, mystical '60s pop, lonely country, lonelier rock 'n' roll, instrumental weirdness, electronic creaking"
Many songs shazamed into my playlist from this show.

24/7 Ska & Reggae (with a smidgeon of Soul and Punk thrown in). The station has been building for over the past two years and has gained a following from nearly every continent on the globe. The station prides itself on the collection of Presenters that it has gathered from around the world. Each Presenter has a passion for the music they play, whether it is Ska, Ska Punk, Reggae, Boss Reggae, Dub, Lovers, Dancehall, etc. they try to bring you a mixture all the eras from the early 60’s right the way through to pre-release albums.
