I have two college stations, one all jazz, the other all classical, 3 public stations two of which used to be college licenses that now cover news and other interests along with the main station that has a variety of music programming throughout the day and evening and a community station run by a non-profit. They all sound very good to superb. This is all in a smaller market in the inland northwest. What it takes is interest from the public and financial support. radioparadise.com offers a cd-quality stream and has an incredible curated selection by real djs and it sounds very good. But my local college jazz station kills it in sound quality though my accuphase t-1000 tuner and it isn't even close. Commercial fm has always sounded terrible, since the use of high compression is used to increase signal reach farther from the antenna has gone on for decades now. Hit the left end of the dial for the good sounding, non-commercial stations. That's where the magic is...
