<Why does anyone need broadcast radio?
Oh, that’s easy. Outside of owning the radio it’s free to use. You don’t have pay a monthly fee to the internet company, install and update software etc. and that makes them easily accessible to the poor and elderly. The interface is simple to use and they’re very portable. Even if you feel the programming is not kosher you can keep one around to hear the weather and announcements in emergency conditions. Radio will get through when the internet is down. In totalitarian countries like China and Iran radio will get through from outside the border when the government pulls the switch on it’s internet service.
