I maaaay have taken my phone on an accidental trip in a pool and was given an old phone to use as temporary. Has a headphone port. Saw the radio app and realized how do many of my smart phones even had radio access even though they all are capable. Bastards

Yep, it was nice. Free music, at any time, all you needed was a charged battery and a cheapo pair of cans. Hell, I still have an MP3 player. It's no larger than a Zippo lighter, MicroSD support, full radio with wired headphones as the antenna.

*Well, free as in you paid your "subscription" when you did your taxes, standard radio fare.

Yes, which is why it's a good thing the internet we pay for has no ads!

That is why it is free!
