[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1508723"] The station mix in iTunes represents a wide variety of stations -- some are "regular" radio stations, some are ad-supported Internet-only stations, and some are supported in other ways and are ad-free. As Cradom says, you'll have to find which ones are which yourself, but as a rule of thumb: 1. College-based stations tend to be "ad-free," though they may have underwriting spots or pledge drives. 2. Radio Paradise and Soma-FM are ad-free and supported by listeners. 3. Needless to say, but NPR, CBC and BBC stations are ad-free (the former again using other methods to pay operating costs).
