Alan Cross: Why You'll Have To Pay For All Radio In Future Cars
Never mind AM or FM. You may soon need a full wallet to access either of them in your next vehicle. Broadcaster Alan Cross has seen the future of car radios - and it won't be cheap.
"First, the bad news. Local radio will no longer be free and unlimited. Second, with all the other subscription offerings that will be available, radio runs the risk of getting lost in a multitude of news/entertainment choices. Today’s broadcasters will have to figure out what to do about that."
Your car’s dashboard is about to get a lot more expansive — and expensive

After reading this article, I will keep my 17 year old Toyota Camry with only 105000 km and a standard easy to operate AM/FM radio.

The best part of the article. The word "DELCO." Listening to Rock/Pop radio back in the sixties, the thrill was listening through a DELCO Radio; in my Dad's Chevy. Guess I'm holding on to my two older vehicles for awhile. Very disturbing story.

If I don't pay, will I be spared hearing Alan Cross, or Eric Alper for that matter? Win-win.

Oh come on. Are you saying you don’t need to read an article or hear an interview about every single thought that enters either one of their heads?
That’s crazy talk!
