The main demographic for radio these days is males 50+. Plus unless you're in one of the 4-5 largest cities in the country, it's all syndicated anyway. Not going to hear any new music on the radio anyways. Unless you mean web radio.
I get most of my new music from reading actually, in B*tch magazine (hate having to star that title out, but the forum software makes me
) or in the news, occasionally on small label websites. If I like what I read, I'll listen to some clips, and if I like what I hear, I'll buy an album. Or sometimes I'll go to B&N (yeah, I know, best we've got around here) and listen to what they've got on display. On rare occasions the iTunes free song of the week is good enough for me to pursue more from the artist. But that's pretty rare.
