Why Listen To FM Radio For Music Anymore At Home?


.
With the proliferation of all of the great streaming services and great DACS, why would anyone listen to FM radio for music on their main rig at home any more?. I only listen to FM in my car now.

Real people work at Minnesota and Wisconsin NPR and impart real knowledge in general and local classical events in particular.
If you don't listen to classical or jazz I suppose there is no reason to listen to FM.
I listen to WGBO at home for a few hours a day, since I do not spend much time in my car. I have found that the best way to discover new music is listening to FM radio. Most of the music services are not very good for discovering new music. Long live FM.

I concur w/ The Duke- radio is part of my dna as well. I love NPR and grew up listening to radio. For those who have college "rado" stations, there is usually great programming to be heard! Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
Why? For a change of pace when I don't feel like selecting from my own library. If I don't like what's on I go to plan B. I also like hearing the local music news on air.
Since I cannot use an antenna where I live (HOA restrictions), I have been listening to various local stations from around the world on my internet tuner. This way I can still listen to my old favorite WQXR, as well as the local and other NPR stations, BBC 3 and many other stations I couldn't hear anywhere. Yeah, it doesn't sound as good as my old Day Sequerra tuner with an outdoor antenna did when I lived in northern NJ, but I get a wealth of music, commentary and other information out of it that I wouldn't hear otherwise. And it's free, too (save for the donations I make to keep my local public radio alive).
