SoCal FM radio casualty

Looks like not too many people are listening to FM radio, and that's why there's only one R&R station left in LA.  Our time and music are passing.  It was fun while it lasted, though.

Not sure about the exact situation in your region, but don't many stations migrate to internet radio? As a listener, I have moved over as well, and without any regrets. As long as the bit rate is on the higher side, internet radio is sonically superior to FM (although the weakneses of both are a bit hard to compare). And you suddenly have such a wide range to choose from.

Good point willemj, I didn't even think about internet radio although I use it.  Now that we have access to all those stations from all over the world, some will survive and others will shut down.  At least they won't all be owned by Clear Channel.

willemj-my dispair occurs only in my car, which isn't equipped with "modern" technology-no Bluetooth to stream from a device.

At home, my Mac MR71 serves me well. I've read   mixed reviews comparing GOOD FM tuner vs. Internet/service.. Since I dont use either at home, so can't comment on SQ.

There used to be some really great FM stations out of L.A. and Long Beach. Anyone remember KNOB out of Long Beach and a DJ named Sleepy Stein?
