There seems to be a move to close the remaining longwave and mediumwave AM transmitters.
The BBC recently closed Radio 4 on 198kHz longwave and there are fewer and fewer stations remaining on longwave and medium wave AM.
In the end I can see a day coming when all broadcasting is via the internet and not "over the air".
I would not be surprised if we see the end of linear broadcasting completely. Instead people would watch what they want when they want whether radio or TV. The danger is if we ever lose the internet we lose all broadcasting. This could be hacking or just a fault.
