I live nowhere near North America so I don't know how relevant my answers are to you... but here goes anyway...
Yan/20/Chinese/Melbourne, Australia
1. What are your listening and viewing habits (radio and television)
I mostly watch television... Don't listen to the radio much since I started living in Australia. Never got used to them...heh. Plus, I've got more than enough songs on my playlist.
2. Generally, what do you listen to on the radio and watch on television?
I don't really like all those Top 40 stations as they all play the same thing ove rand over again. When I was in Malaysia, I always preferred those adult contemporary stations. Think Rod Stewart. For TV, I like documentaries (really!), trashy current affair shows, sports and the occasional movie. The news is good because I don't like reading the papers.
3. Why do you listen to the radio?
I hardly anymore but when I do, it's mainly because I need something to sing along to in the car.
4. Why do you watch TV?
I need an alternative besides from the computer
5. What is significant or important to you about TV or radio?
Entertainment and information. Being in front of the telly is also somewhat of a bonding session between the boyfriend and I.
6. What changes should be made to radio and TV? What could be done to improve broadcasting?
Get rid of pointless programs, reality tv shows to be specific. There are some that I don't mind, for example The Amazing Race but I really don't see the point of shows that put a dozen of people together and make them lose weight or those that put some people in a house and film them bathing nude.
