I have had my empeg for more than a year now... and since the day it went into my car, I have not listened to the radio. I certainly would not pay money in order to do so.
But, that said, I do tend to march to the beat of a different drummer, and no doubt other people, smarter than I am, would disagree with my outlook.
My main use of radio (besides news etc) is to be alerted about new interesting music releases. You, on the other hand, are very unlikely to hear the L.v.B's new 10th symphony
