AM & FM Radio, I'm sure you've heard of them if you can copy a cd to a thumb drive.

I bought my car with 13,000 miles, so I am not sure if owner paid for several years or is still getting charged?? Worked out for me though FOXHOLE RADIO...

Loop
If you use mp3 you can get a lot of music on a thumb drive. Ihave 4g drive that I have 323 songs on it. It only used .98GB.

ok smart ass what are their with no am or fm. I have not listen to am or fm in over 10 years. The only time is when my grands kids or daughter is in the car.they might listen to the FM stations but that is rare. I do not like to listen to 5 minutes of talk and advertizing a 3 song then repeat. Sirius radio 3 minute song 15 sec break repeat. Pandora is nice but you need some thing that uses the internet.

LOL. The XM on My Certified Pre-owned was 'activated' last month and has never worked. I even decided to waste a few precious minutes calling them and trying to activate it. After 20 minutes of working with them, setting up my account (the dealer apparently never did) and giving them my Radio I.D. and letting it 'sit'....Voila! absolutely nothing lol!

Honestly don't care about XM. I just stream A2DP audio from Slacker (or MP3) on my phone.

This....although I like Slacker.com quality much better, but it's more bandwidth intensive...

Slacker works just like Pandora, except that if you pay $4.99/Month you can download stations to your phone/Android device. I do that with my phone and then mount the phone right above the the radio. Connect the bluetooth, fire up slacker with my downloaded stations and Away I go-even with no internet/cell phone connection!
