Seems like it's gotten worse over the past several months.

Probably.

As others have posted, seems like there are more ads - I wonder if that has to do with there being more choices (satellite radio, streaming services) so radio needs to sell more ads cheaper since they're not reaching as many people.

I bet there is a huge chunk of the population that just streams from their phone and doesn't bother listening to the radio at all. I'd probably do this for the most part but my phone->car audio has barely tolerable sound quality.

EDIT: Yeah, try KEXP. I like a lot of their genre specific shows, they match what I typically listen to.

Or they're just trying to get as much money as they can.
