Long, fascinating article about how radio got to be the way it is and how the guy who broke it is hoping to make something better (via the XM satellite radio service).
Many of the points in the article were made by other commenters above (and kudos to them for knowing this stuff!), but perhaps with less historical context, so it's worth a read.
