Seriously who the gently caress is this poo poo marketed to? Is it hip to listen to FM radio on a $300+ phone rather than a portable cassette player? Does it come with a caramel macchiato?
























I just heard about it on OTA FM radio.

Precisely.

But hey it uses less power than streaming (I'd hope at least.. remember when you could buy those cheapy handheld FM radios with headphones from the dollar store).

I'd be curious to know if it screws up its own reception.

I want some cumbersome app that has an excuse for direct hardware access with the guise of listening to my local ads!
