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.

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).
