This is all that needs to be said really, I dont understand why you would choose to listen to something that you freely admit is crap just becuase it fills up your sound space.

Being a DJ involves some modicum of talent and training. Very few of these people would have any idea how to go about creating a set which would satisfy hardened clubbers; their shows largely consist of playing tracks from a pre-determined playlist given to them by the station organisers. Most of them would probably burst into tears if you gave them a set of turntables and asked them to do something interseting. Putting Chris Moyles or Edith Bowman in the same class as a good club DJ is silly, and trying to compare them to decent hip-hop DJs/turntablists is just so ridiculous it makes me want to weep. Pushing a few buttons to play tracks which someone else has selected does not make you a DJ.
They are radio presenters/entertainers who happen to play songs every now and then.
