Why do we want FM?

BATTERY LIFE!!!, using EvDO or HSPDA takes MORE battery then the FM Radio

COVERAGE!!!, where I live and work I have 0-1 bars and CONSTANTLY switch between roaming/noservice/service, which again drains the battery and screws up any internet radio app you could think of using

QUALITY!!!, sadly to say nearly all stations I have found on the internet for music i like stream in 64kbps quality... WHICH SUCKS and compared to my local FM radio station makes me want to cry! (additionally the station here covers an area of about 120miles outside of the city!)

and while not really a problem for me (when im working that is) PRICE/COST!!!, FM is free! the music apps that carriers offer is expensive, even more so then iTunes songs :/ (and i use Zune so more expensive still)



Additionally instead of using a 8GB mem stick I like the morning bits my local station does, which constantly caused me to crack up laughing (99.5KISS FM, also streams in 64kbps...)
