Record a couple of hours from a high bitrate shoutcast radio, and then you've got something better. There's a million more to choose from, and those are selected especially for the style you like, because they don't need to provide a wider range of styles to survive.

And that reaches from the other end of the world (the Internet is a WAN, so no need for lousy quality AM to reach far).

The 5 dollar price, that one is true, but so will mp3 players be when the technology is dead...
