>Why would I let someone else dictate what I listen to when there's plenty of on-demand content available 24/7?
To be fair there's still good radio out there and not even just on the internet. The really commercial stuff on most of the FM band is tedious but personally I really love people who are passionate about music play me things I might not have heard before. Things like BBC Radio Six Music and the former offshore pirate Radio Caroline are both pretty good in this regard.
A good radio DJ can create a far more personal and human experience than just waiting for Spotify's algorithm to give you something vaguely related.
