That is quite strange ... Here in India, most people own an android. And Radio App is pre-installed in almost all those phones. You just have to plug-in your earphones to start using it. I expected that behavior to be universal.

'in India' is the key here. Market segmentation at its worst.

  Sorry but I don't really get it ... what harm would enabling radio on a phone would do?

    It's all over the article: it lessens the demand for streaming media over Internet, which of course means income for the telcos.

The cheaper chipsets seem to be more likely to have the FM functionality enabled.
