Actually, it is over 95%. Roughly the same as it was in 1965.

Ah, you called Miss Cleo. Ask what Google stock will be at, will you?

In the mid-60's, pundits said FM would never make it and radio would die due
to TV. Those predictions are as accurate as yours. The satellite numbers are
totally bogus, as sat radio has hit a brick wall on new subscriptions and
the churn rate is huge after the free trial offers expire.

Poor argument - the 1960's didn't have cell phone/streaming, Satellite
Radio, the Internet, Internet Radio, etc...no nearly the same
situation Bud!

The advent of TV did not change things at all...and TV was alone in offering
a single alternative. Today, none of the alternatives reaches as many people
as radio does. None.
