"This clown Grabauskas has a lot of nerve trying to sell off our mindspace after jacking up the T rates. And do the announcement speakers have to be so loud? My baby starts crying when she hears those Suspect Your Neighbor bulletins."
"I voted for you, Governer."
"There is too much invasive input in our lives as is!"
"Please stop T radio. I LOVE hearing LIVE music or just relaxing with my own thoughts."
"Using the T can be noisy enough. I don't need to pay for the privledge of being assaulted with advertising I'm likely not to care about."

"live is always better than canned!"
"I find T-Radio annoying and too loud to be blocked out by headphones. I also find it distracts from the announcements of trains. I much prefer the traditional buskers you would normally hear."
"isn't there enough noise?"
"the less music and noise, live or piped in, the better."
