I've found some long stretches on I-95 on the way to or back from
Florida where for long stretches, there are no FM stations we want to
listen to, so if we want music, it'll be bluetooth from our "i" devices.


I gave up on the radio 18 years ago. I have had some sort of MP3
player in my car since 1999. I have always preferred my own tunes. In
fact I did not have a radio in my 69 Corvette either. I only had an 8
track, the one that came from my 67 Chevelle. There was a succession
of 8 track players after that.
There was a miserable decade using cassettes and CDs but I was happy
to leave them behind.
When it became possible to have my tunes without carrying around
little bits of plastic, I was all in. I don't even want to think about
how many times I have had to buy some songs, either because the media
was obsolete or that it simply failed.
