I don't mind their music choices and enjoy the variety. I just wish there were more music and fewer commercials. Sometimes it is nonstop advertising for homes, golf pro shops, businesses, etc. We all know how wonderful it is to live here, so the interviews with "the man on the street" merely serve to promote TV to prospective buyers. In the year since we've lived here, it seems to have become worse. WVLG gets less and less of my time.

In my car CDs rule!

Typically, my music includes:

Rhapsody in Blue (and other Gershwin work.)
1812 Overture (and other Tchaikovsky work.)
Beethoven's Fifth Symphony
A little Chopin
Mama Cass' Big Ones (Big hits, that is.)
The Cathedrals (and other Southern Gospel Quartets.)
A variety of Zydeco music from my Louisiana days.
Willie & Waylon and other similar music; I am a Texan.
A small amount of 50's or 60's music.
Nothing from the 70's to the present.

When I operate my amateur radio transceiver there is no music. It is illegal to transmit music on the ham radio frequencies, even in the background.

Amplitude Modulation. WVLG is mostly for Villages info:..weather, golf closings, softball, and what's happening around town. Music is available EVERYWHERE.

Thanks, but it wasn't a real question.

In forty years, WVLG will be playing Justin Bieber and Rhianna.

Exactly and of course.

TV is going to play to the biggest demographic.

Personally, I'm glad the music is getting more "current".

My husband and I both like WVLG but a number of years ago a car we bought had Satellite Sirius radio and we love it! At that time we paid up front for a lifetime subscription and they even transferred it to our latest car for free. Best money we ever spent. They variety is awesome!
