Are tuners still popular

Internet streaming tuners have relegated my analog tuner to my basement storage to keep my cassette deck company. 

If you own a tuner and derive enjoyment from it, who cares whether tuners are "popular"?  I have a Luxman T110, which was once highly touted and now seems to be worth about 75 bucks.  I probably should use it more than I do.

My analog tuners have been replaced with music streamer/internet radio

I’ve been helping a friend run a small, low powered station here in town. We hosted dance parties to raise the money we needed to get started.. I know of at least 5 people who have purchased tuners to listen. So yeah, there’s still life in radio, especially since the FCC opened up the spectrum to low powered, local stations. Much more relatable, no commercials, our community is loving it

Even for the astute audiophile the are different kinds of music, one of which is Phil Music, the stuff in between listening sessions.  This is the background music of life.  Radio is prime source of this.  Radio is also a powerful source of local information useful to daily life (try the weather of traffic), and of course radio is a good source of what you have never heard before, or a reminder of what you have heard but forgotten.  

While AM radio is struggling for relevance in modern life, FM still is as it is portable and timely.

I doubt you will see it go away but more likely become more personable.

Nope. I never had good FM reception - now listen to my stations ( and around the world ) on the internet.

To sounds real. I’d like your tuner if it’s working. Thanks. Pete. pts1@shaw.ca

I have a Luxman tuner that I would love to find a good home for. Shipping only. 

my original post didn't include -"composed while listening to my Mac MR 71."

Growing up in a household with the radio constantly on, I haven't stopped.
Sometimes I don't even turn it off on the weekends!

Unfortunatley, in my area, anything beyond NPR,Jazz and Classical is awful. R&R will eventually need to few included as a public service, because what's left in SocCal, leaves much to be desired.

May I presume the stations being tuned in are broadcasting in analog and reception is via terrestrial antenna?
Thanks.

we listen to radio about 70% of the time-getting ready for work, cleaning, sitting around house.

love my MR-67 and MR-74

but I have about 5 good public and community stations on Northern Colorado to listen to

They are still popular with me. I have three, and listen to at least one every day.

Is this some kind of statement or a rhetorical question?
