Given the plethora of threads about AM/FM support, satellite radio, crappy Bluetooth, etc, I figured it is time for a poll on which one people most care about.

We all want our own preferred media source, but it's also unrealistic for Rivian to include all of the options.

If you could choose one additional media source, what would it be?

for road trips and adventuring AM/FM radio just plain work. nearly everywhere you’ll get some signal.

Yes, FM is needed #1, USB support (not bluetooth) for MP3 is definitely #2. using my phone is a PITA.

For: Free Access to Listener supported, local radio; addicted to it for news and music!
Against: Hedge fund, private equity owned, monetized radio access (I never knowingly purchased anything I've ever heard about on the radio)

Offline storage of Apple Music, just like you can do on a phone. That's how I listen to media while off grid, on a plane, etc. But I'd like the higher fidelity of the ATMOS files that play directly in the Rivian system.

Too bad the OP lumped USB Flash Drive and "improved BT Experience" together as one choice. It would be interesting to see the numbers for just "USB Flash Drive" support by it self.

Right, I would never use a USB drive, but high-bandwidth BT would be very welcome.

We're also missing 8-track player.
