Re: [IRCA] New Ford auto radios-the future?

That's a good question. I haven't touched a CD since 2007. Apple looks like it's  going away from physical media with there apps store. I wonder when they will stop shipping computers with  CD drives? The only local station I like now
over the air  is KGO. All other stations/steams are from the phone. I think that over the air broadcast will be around at least another decade.
