Reddit is like Twitter and Instagram - it really depends on who you follow. All three are full of wonderful creative and interesting individuals and ideas that I'm really glad I follow. Also a lot of toxic crap.

You wouldn't say radio is useless simply because there is a genre of station you don't like.

The parent comment is talking about the presentation, too, not just the content.

This situation is more like if all of the radio stations were owned by the same company, were all jam-packed with the same crappy advertisements, and it was quickly becoming evident that the only way to listen to any of the stations would be through the crappy radio offered directly by the company.

I think this is what FM radio basically is, and def what SiriusXM is. It might also be why radio is less interesting to many than Android Auto or Carplay.
