It would be a shame if radio disappeared from car radios, but honestly, I do not think I can remember the last time I turned my radio on, given the choices of:

The two rap/hip hop stations

The political talk station with 55% commercials, 45% talk

The three "generic boy band/girl singer/American Idol pop" stations

The two syndicated sports talk stations endlessly yammering about teams on the other side of the nation

The two "classic rock" stations playing the same old same old indefinitely

The three country stations playing the same formulaic Nashville pop/rock "country"

I drove 8 hours to Canada 3 weeks ago for business. I rented a car with satellite radio. The trip was fantastic. Listened to the comedy stations all the way.

This past Monday, the satellite radio subscription expired so all I get are XM/Sirius previews on all channels. Blech.

I have to drive back tomorrow and listen to nothing but various crappy FM stations and their inane commercials. The car radio has NO Aux audio input so I can't use my MP3 player. Feh.

Sounds almost like the lineup here.

I use music stored on the DROID a lot.
