"Big Tech Fails to understand why radio works..." Radio works? Just my opinion, but I find it the absolute worst way to listen to music that was ever invented - it just happened to be the only option for decades. The DJs are annoying/boring, the advertisements are incessant and they play the same songs over and over and over again each day. I'd love to hear what exactly "works" for radio that Big Tech doesn't understand.
In the UK (and Australia, Ireland, most of Northern Europe) around 90% of the population listen to radio each week. They're also countries with strong public broadcasters (who mostly have no ads) that provide competition that keeps commercial radio good. Here, there's a broad selection of stations from repetitive hit music stations like Capital to deep cuts on BBC 6Music - the breadth of choice, the targeting of listeners likes and dislikes and quality content makes it a success. UK commercial radio's also had it's best ever year financially.
