So much music that we never hear!

Today in radio I notice that no matter what station I listen to I keep hearing the same few songs over and over again. Even station that advertise as being different formats all play the same loops. They run commercials all at the same time and even run the same promo events. Are we witness to the death of radio 

This is true, commercial radio has followed broadcast TV providing a terrible product while trying to survive.

An example of how radio is in trouble financially is CBS selling off all its radio stations. CBS/Viacom/Sumner Redstone invested heavily buying about 200 stations around the country (many were news, talk) Now they're trying to unload them.

My Subaru came with a 3 month subscription to SiriusXM and there was plenty of repetition 

I'm guessing only an independent station, such as KVMR in Nevada City, CA is likely to be free of the afflictions described in this thread.. 

They can be listened to online as well as "on air".

This particular station is very liberal in terms of its news/public affairs content. so some will find this more than enough reason to avoid it.

They offer a very wide selection of genres so I'd strongly suggest consulting their program guide , unless one's tastes are extremely eclectic. 

Of course, university radio stations tend to be highly eclectic and free of commercial  contagion, as well. 

I'm currently listening to my Spotify Discover Weekly playlist. Of the 30 songs chosen by the Spotify algorithm for me this week, there are only 2 I've even heard on any radio station. And they would never be heard on any mainstream commercial station.

Frankly  I've been p$&## off  and mad at the world of the all the music  we don't get to hear on a fm station and it's  never been played such as I just discovered Doc Watson and last year it was Tommy Emanuel, I know now where Tommy was partially influenced.  And there is about 100 others never even considered to be played on crap radio stations. It's mind boggling.
