Maybe if you live somewhere with good radio stations... the radio is pretty much dead here. Nothing but Christian talk and static.
And ads... You forgot ads.... Never ending ads..
I switched to satellite years ago (when there was two competing services) because I once had an hour long drive and didn't hear anything but ads the whole way. I was fed up with it.
I now pretty much use Spotify because XM and Sirius merged, so now there's only the one service, and they immediately cut features, introduced ads, and jacked up prices. So I cancelled.
You mean as soon as two competeting companies merged to create a monopoly it caused massive problems? Who could have guessed!
FTC had no problem with that, but Microsoft buying Activision possibly making Call of fuckin' Duty an Xbox exclusive was something they got all in a huff about.
God damn jackasses. 🤦♂️
