COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA
Media
Communication makes a connection between two persons, this is the process of giving information from a sender to a receiver with the use of a medium. Nowadays the types of the media are very comprehensive / wide. The most important types are the TV, radio, newspaper, internet, telephone or e-mail.
Television (TV) is a widely used telecommunication medium. TV is transmitting moving images and sound. Television is a source of entertainment and news.

As for me, I don’t really like to watch TV channels, I prefer watching a DVD. Because there are no advertisements, and I can watch what I would like to.
Radio is another type of media. There are two types of the radios, the public and the commercial radio. In public radios there are fewer advertisements and less music, but more news and programmes. However, in commercial radios there are more adverts, more music and fewer programmes or news. Usually the public radios play classical music, while the commercial radios play modern music.

I think of CD players, computers, Discmans etc. I prefer the CD or Mp3 player too.
