If the FM is what passes for music these days, it's MUCH better IMHO.


There is very little that is sent in the form of radio waves that is worth
the electrical power to send it.



Hmm, many advertisers would disagree. Since they have real money at stake
and you don't...

The really sad thing is that much of
what is send via FM is really "voice grade" material. When FM was new,
the material for FM was specially produced to take advantage of the wide
bandwidth and large dynamic range.


Bandwidth, perhaps. Wide dynamic range? The FCC rules seem to
suggest otherwise.
