With the Pandora app you can choose a variety of music channels or set your own artist preferences - and receive it on just about any device - phone, pad, laptop, TV

Yes it would be nice to break it up now and again with segments for Contemporary, Jazz, Classical.

That's because we come from the past, in the future Villages will be spinning on your head & butts while the Rap-Music plays-on...
Reserve you seats now while tickets are available......

Yes, I recommend “Siriusly Sinatra” on Sirius/XMAS, channel 71. Almost entirely vocal swing versions of songs from The Great American Songbook. It’s not “smooth jazz,” but it’s much better, with better melodies and lyrics.

If you have a HD radio check out WMGF 107.7 sub channel 2, out of Mt Dora. They play smooth jazz 24/7. I can receive it OK near Brownwood.

Competition is good. I thought we capitalists like competition, no? Monopoly borders on, well, the "opposite" of capitalism.

Besides, TV's metro population is around 130K, certainly enough to support another radio station. Although I listen to WVLG occasionally and am okay with it, it would be great to hear a Villages-based station that deviates from constant soft rock once in a while. And one that provides some balance to news reports rather than channeling only Fox.

And if they could throw in the prog and post-punk of our generation, that would be even better.

Apart from WVLG, I only listen to Sirius XM. For me, commercial radio has long been unlistenable. I only listen to WVLG because I'm new to the Villages and that station permits me to learn more about the area and gives me an overall vibe of the place, for better or worse.
