What is a good radio station for me?

Question

I would like to listen to a radio station that has more music than just what people request and has music from budding artists. I do not want a station that plays the same songs for a week until they are ruined and then moves on to the next ones. I would also enjoy a humorous personality and the occasional prank call. I usually listen online due to the fact that it is higher quality, so if you can think of one, please give me a link where I could listen to them.

Thank you so much,

-G

Here's a whole slew of stations I've been collecting. There are any number of alternate Internet stations to download or use to listen to their playlists or create your own.

I prefer iTunes, Windows Media Player or AOL because they are big companies that are not going to clutter up your computer (well, with the possible exception of AOL). They are all free and all offer an astounding array of choices.

The following sites will have live broadcasts or allow you to set up a custom station to your taste (below are download sites for internet players with lots of stations):

Or... many stations allow you to listen to their programming via the internet. Most US stations do not allow those outside the country to stream because of royalty concerns. You can find stations at:
