Because those are two different mediums. In one you listen to your own music collection over and over, in the other you can find new things (at least where I live, dunno about commercial radio in the states), plus there are tons of NON musical programs you can tune in to.
Tons of people listen to radio stations even over the internet through their laptops/desktops, on which they already have access to iTunes/Spotify et al... Heck, people listen to radio stations even from _within_ iTunes.
- freehunter 14y agoIn one you listen to your own music collection over and over, in the other you can find new things Which is why I mentioned other services which allow you to listen to new music. Zune Pass playlists offer this, similar to Sirius/XM stations. Why would Apple bother making radio slightly better when they could completely destroy radio by offering something significantly better which also makes them money? Making radio slightly better isn't worth buying a new stereo, new head unit for my car, etc. In those situations, radio is simply good enough. Apple doesn't generally play in markets where their best offering is only slightly better than good enough.
