Any thoughts or experience on the current and future of FM radio?

A bit of "thinking out loud" here.  I have enjoyed and learned much from radio in my life.  First AM rock and roll and then FM Jazz.  My question is where do things go from here?  Broadcast FM, internet music, FM stations with an internet site and anything more you can think of.

I, like most on this site, have the sound quality and as close to the original recording as possible being my pursuit.  I am more on the consumer side and would have interest in hearing anyone's take on what the future may have in store.  From LPs to 8-tracks and cassettes and various digital discs, redbook sacd etc, I have traveled the road most of you have and am hopeful that the future has an old term in mind "high fidelity".

I also still love my FM tuner the (Seattle)NPR 24h Jazz station is rather good sounding better at times then streaming from tidal. Oh tidal I also like to stream and records still of course as I'm of that age group who has a large collection still.  

I like FM for the turn it on and forget it thing, streaming needs attention to either set up play lists of find music etc.
