Yes, I wish that music on the radio had a little more variety as well. While there are still some great songs that are played, so many sound the same.

With radio, advertising is the chief form of revenue. This equates to radio stations choosing content that will promote the greatest listening audience. That means top40 rules the day.
When people shop for an electronic device a radio tuner isn't a feature they are looking for.
Voice personalities, especially morning shows, still hold a value. The morning commute, for the most part, consists of an armada of one-manned vehicles. The company of a voice personality makes it as though you are not alone in the car. I don't think this idea will die out, but radio being the way it is delivered very well could.
