Advantages: Several good shows; The Evening Concert; Classical music!!! Disadvantages: A flood of adverts; Simon Bates
. On early Saturday mornings (if you happen to be awake before 9!) there is the excellent Mark, Tim and Annie show with the three presenters here named. The witty chat and good choice of music certainly make this show worth a listen. If only it were the same on weekdays too!

This is on every weekday from 11. I have to say I think this is a great idea to fill an hour of schedules. What happens is that every day, the good folk at ClassicFM stick around thirty fairly well known pieces of classical music up on the web site (will be talked about later) and ask you, the public, to vote for your favourite.

Advantages: A varied collection of great Poets and great Poetry in one book. Disadvantages: If you like Poetry, none at all!

Advantages: postable, lots of chose Disadvantages: get a bit boring after a while
100Classic Book Collection for DS is a really good idea for the DS. The bassic idea is that you hold your DS like a book and use the stylus to turn the pages of a wide range of classic stories. In the collection you have such stories as; Treasure Island, Pride and Prejudice, Oliver Twist, Romeo and Juliet, Jane eyre, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame and many more. I found it very easy to use, there is a virtual bookshelf to browse the many books in the collection and by simply clicking on a book it opens up and you can read it with ease. There is also a book guide with custom recommendations that can aid you in which book to read next. Also you can read the author infomation before each book which gives you a good insite in to the history behind the book you are about to read. I found it really helpful as I often get board of books and never ...
