Not sure who "you" is in your answer. In this thread I'm exclusively
speaking about radio, i.e. the spoken word, while several others are
going on about music.

radio does not mean, and never has meant 'the spoken word'. Especially
before the advent of recording


Music, specifically classic music is by definition old


No, it is still being written today, mainly for film scores its true,
but it is being written..classical music is scored music for an
ensemble, with an conductor and may instruments..


and can come from
anywhere like a deceased relative's record collection. Radio is valuable
for its currently relevant content and must be received now. That's
where differences in quality come in. Anyone can put on records.


And anyone can tell lies over the air as well.
