I have never experienced any downtime on streaming on my 2016 model S apart from when I don’t have connectivity. It always works and I do use it regularly. Is that a problem related to the newer MCU’s?Does the so-called "new working browser" also require access through the Tesla servers, as I understand the streaming services now do? if so, I'd want some assurance that Tesla will keep their servers running more reliably. At least every week or two, I experience several hours or a day when no streaming works, no traffic data, and no voice commands, presumably because the Tesla servers are down. This happened to me tonight, in fact. At 6 PM on my way to a meeting, I could get nothing except the FM radio, and it still was that way when i came home at 8:30 PM or so. Tesla's streaming services have been less reliable lately, in my impression. So losing FM radio would be adding insult to injury.
I do not understand why anyone wants to listen to FM, AM or Sirius in this day and age.

Live talk radio with a few songs thrown in. I can't remember the last time I heard a commercial. I like hearing live local news, weather, traffic, etc.I do not understand why anyone wants to listen to FM, AM or Sirius in this day and age.

The station I listen to is not available on TuneIn since mid-2018. If Tesla would let us stream radio.com or other internet radio sites, then I wouldn't mind the lack of FM as much.
You must not be a big sports fan - most of my radio usage relates to live sorts events while in the car. You can’t get those through the streaming services available in a Tesla.I do not understand why anyone wants to listen to FM, AM or Sirius in this day and age.

There is more on FM than music and some of us want to listen to that even without cell coverage.I do not understand why anyone wants to listen to FM, AM or Sirius in this day and age.

This has been said in many other threads. Tesla does not plan to change the cameras. They will stay black and white with a red filter for AP2/MCU1 cars that upgrade to the MCU2/AP3.My question is, will they change the cameras over to color in the AP2 cars that are currently not colored, as part of the upgrade package?
Worth to whom? Maybe a subset of informed buyers. Unless you follow Tesla closely, you have no idea about it. Average buyers can barely tell the difference between battery sizes, which is probably one of the reasons why Tesla renamed their model like to "standard range", "long range", and "performance". People you read from on TMC are not average buyers.From a resell perspective, I wonder how much more a 2017 (for example) would sell with an upgraded MCU2 va stock MCU1 in a year or two? Would it be worth $1k more or so? I would think so.

Ha, you think this is bad? They sold Level 5 autonomy to AP2.0 buyers - do you really think they will be able to get those car to reach FSD as it was sold? A brand new car will likely be cheaper than what it would take to upgrade AP2.0 to level 5 FSD (you know, the one which can drive your friends and family around, and make money for you while driving for the Tesla ride sharing network). Their only saving grace is that most if not all AP2 cars will be on the scrapped by the time Tesla has level 5 FSD.They are also setting themselves up for a class-action lawsuit by going this route. They did not make any stipulations regarding limited functionality of FSD in older vehicles when they sold the product and if they don't deliver, I can't imagine they will have a good argument to justify it. My guess is that they will eventually be forced to make MCU1 fully compatible or provide the MCU2 upgrade to FSD vehicles without charge, and perhaps compensate MCU1 owners for lost functionality (AM/FM/SXM).
Im just going to take this pause to say holy *sugar* they actually came through on a MCU2 upgrade.
