How many people Que music before they go to work so they can listen there?
How many people Que music before leaving work so they can listen at home?

I have done this on occasion but not recently. One time I queued up stuff 6 hours before I got home, that was back when the stream was that long during the busy time of the day. But I haven't done it in a long time. As for queuing before I got to work, man I would have to wake up earlier.

It's good and bad this station has become more popular. It's good for obvious reasons. But I feel bad that the queue is so long and some people can't get to request things. At this point, I don't know what else to do about it for a quick fix. I DO have a plan to help solve all of these issues but it's a huge undertaking and I have other stuff to do first.
Sorry that the queue is so long.

Before my office banned streaming music (they never "allowed" us to listen before, but now it won't even connect), I would jump on the computer before heading into work to request songs and still my selections ended up being around 10:30 EST.

I've done it once to see if I could make it when I got at home from school and I was lucky to be one song away before mine would play. I won't do that ever again. Most of the time I get up too late and see that the songs I love the most have been played already or some of them are in the queue already so I listen right away. Today I think I will give it a break and listen to the background stream.

Sub you don't ever have to apologize! You have made something that gives some many so much pleasure. I think everybody understands that there are a lot of people trying to get into a limited space. We all appreciate and enjoy what you have done!
You are the best!!!

I do think it is a little unfair for our fellow listeners on the West coast though. For me, I wake up when it is 2:30am in LA. If and everyone else on the East coast queue up our thirty minutes then there is no time in the day left for our West coast brothers and sisters.

Yes, feel bad for us West Coasters.

I'm fortunate enough to see that some of the songs I like in the Now area but most of the time they're in the middle of the night. I'm not complaining though! I do get a chance to see the songs I like in the queue so I sit back and save my points.

I am one newbie who so far gets a kick out of listening to what other folks have requested. It'll be a big moment for me when I make my first request.

Well I might say that the a lot of the west coasters can request later at night when most east coasters are in bed

I usually don't have time to queue up tracks since it is tough to work around my schedule. Today I decided spur of the moment to listen to subsonic music on my way home from college. It was great to listen to Hall of Presidents while in traffic!

I request if there's time to, and if there isn't, I enjoy whatever anyone else has requested. It's no biggie to me.

I never seem to request anymore but when I do listen to the request stream I just listen to what others play. I pretty much love everything on this site so I can't really go that wrong.

Like others, I enjoy listening to other people's requests (for the most part). It's where I can find new music to add to my treasures. If it's something I don't care for, then I will switch over to the background stream. When I do request, it's usually at night (when there's less traffic) while I'm doing my homework or replying to emails.
