That's awesome, but you posted it in the wrong forum. This post belongs in the "Webcasting/Internet Streaming" forum.

No, it belongs here (it mentions HD Radio):

"... and the more recently launching HD Radio will have on the size of their listening audience."

It mentions HD Radio fleetingly - and it's referenced in the context of the effect HD will have on traditional AM/FM broadcasting.

The piece is clearly about internet streaming - not HD Radio. Wrong forum buddy...

Sorry, buddy - anything that mentions a technology that is in direct competition with HD Radio belongs here ! Even though it mentions HD Radio, you don't want it here, because you know this, along with Internet Radio, will kill HD Radio !

If that's the standard, any entertainment medium could be considered competition for HD Radio.

While this is a webcastpodstream item, it was in HD as a legit HD related post. In a display of rudeness, 15 new topics, links only,
splattered the first page of the HD dicussion board with a parade of HD promos in various degrees of pertinence.
It was was moved by the moderator helping shovel out a snowstorm of individual new item topics.
Note the same Ultra "No I reeeelllllyy mean ultra" wide bandwidth tactic seen else where in their methodologies.
Got to control that pipe man, control it!

Wow, you guys never seem to complain when 700WLW does it!

It never seemed seemed quite so.. I won't characterize it. I guess I'll stick with rude, as it's the one adjective I used before.
WLW seems genuinely interested in refuting and rebutting with info and links I have appreciated, as have Supercaster and concerned others.
This place is THE newspaper for this issue, which I have great interest in, as I feel it is badly-thought out engineering.
I've read the dang ibq tech white papers, and already know the party line. A single topic with the many links would be appreciated.

Getting to streaming, so this post has relevance, luddite that I am, am more likely to stream audio in the car
than I am to risk installing an HD conveter that will probably hobble the great performance of my real 1971 Motorola AM FM MONO.
As mentioned somewhere else, I added a line in, and it works great.

There are many people who also will not care to hang yet another pod on a dash to tune the dang thing.
There are people with older cars who will not permit the modern game-controller look of HD tuners to spoil the graceful art of yesterday's dashboards.
They have screens already in the car, DVD's..
They have their phone, They have their GPS..
Where is the real estate for the HD interface?
Will ib buy into interfaces for these other existing dashboard distractions?


My employer issued the laptop, Cingular wireless access card, and pays the $60 a month.
I get this for free, and why wouldn't streaming be the obvious choice for me?

Have you seen how many laptops there are?
OK, in Chicago I'm smothered in good cingular coverage, so my experience is night and day compared to most of America.
This is where real radio excels and its particular strength and advantage in its original mode should be preserved for AM.
There, we've come back 'round to HD again, where this thread launched.

I'de say, almost all of my threads are related to HD Radio - sometimes, I even post pro-IBOC threads/articles, but really don't seem to be that many...

Thanks, Tom - I really appreciate that, and I apologize for anytime that I have been rude to you and any other civil people. Initially, there were a slew of anti-IBOC articles, when all the pro-IBOC'ers were around and things really got out of hand (I found it more amusing than anything). I have tried to dig up, as much information as possible on IBOC, and it has been a real eye-opener. I didn't realize that this is THE place for these type of issues; from now on, I will ignore inflammatory posts, and concentrate on doing my part to continue to post information. IBOC is such a touchy subject, and I hope I haven't pissed off SUPERCASTER, because I don't see a point in converting over analog, to FMeXtra, or any other technology. This has been one hell of a ride !
