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.

Just two weeks ago I heard an absolutely amazing cut by Freddie Hubbard (recognized him immediately) on WBGO out of Newark, NJ; but didn't recognize the tune nor the alto player. I called WBGO and left a message on dj Bob Porter's voicemail inquiring about the tune. Within an hour and a half he had called back to give me all the info I wanted. Try doing that with a streaming service.

Phil Schaap on WKCR is a national treasure with his incredibly in depth commentary and analysis of historical recordings. Yes, plenty of reasons to listen to FM.

Frog... You waited an hour and 29 minutes too long for that
tune info. On your streaming device, Pandora, Rhapsody,
Spotify and Tidal would've given you the artist's name, album
title and the name of the tune immediately as you were
listening. Google the album name on your smart phone, one
minute later the sax player and the entire lineup, including
the album release date is right in your hand.
