I really wouldn't worry about AM or FM being shut down for a long time
yet. What is far more likely to happen is that the current sorry mess
that is DAB (Dead And Buried) will eventually give way to DAB + using a
much better CODEC .. but then again all these transmission systems have
to be paid for and they aren't cheap hence the recent shut down by GCap
media of the Jazz and Planet rock and core none of which were making any
money.
And there's absolutely no reason to believe that DAB + will be any more
successful than the present DAB. There are already more than enough DAB
receivers in use to make any station profitable - if it gains a large
enough audience to attract advertisers.
