Broadcast, perhaps. A Squeezebox Touch provides free access to over 25 not counting pay-for-service you may also be able to access.

How about the movies? I'll you'll find quite a few soundtracks are classical in nature. I suspect a lot of kids will be watching the new Twilight film out today. The composer of that series, Alexander Desplat, also composed music from the last three Harry Potter films. I remember enjoying Star Trek, Star Wars, ET, Close Encounters , etc. when I was a teenager. What really got me started was Emerson, Lake & Palmer's arrangements of classical pieces.
