The broadcast industry is already devastated and IBOC will just antagonize this situation, with its 40% less coverage than analog, by alienating more listeners ! IBOC's HD channels will be the same repetitive dribble, as on-air now (maybe, with Clear Channel looking into charging a subscription fee for the HD channels, that would just accelerate this situation) !

Lies. Every single assertion that you've made in that paragraph is either simply your opinion or completely untrue.

Your position is flawed and fraudulent.
 
You know, why do I even bother responding to your dribble - no more...

I wonder as well. You can't seem to win.

Nice eulogy.

I love sirius satellite radio. I can't believe everyone hasn't signed up yet.
I also don't understand why their stock price has been hit so hard recently.
Does anyone have any insight?

From: Jaan M.

HD Radio is a Bust...periphery channels(ea. fm only has one real good one)
...any others will be of phone line quality...sidebands are weaker..more picket
fencing and fading ...and its all about content...what a joke..clear channel
selling a"format lab" more cookie cutter radio...no personality..and eventually
commercials.
Satellite is crips , clear, digital and its never gone..always there.
I'm in a 60 channel market as it is and there's nothing to listen to...
I'm addicted to my satellite.!

From: Tim W.

Lots of talk on this wonderfull concept. I'm very confused after years of
talk to see a industry still just talking for the most part... no wonder
Wallstreet has turned their backs on the broadcast area except a chosen few.
First, fix what's being aired now. Try to stop the bleeding due to the loss
of advertisers to other more target specific platforms.
Please put the real radio back in my radio ...! that's the first step to
selling HD radio units. It will brand itself if worth listening to, then
the advertisers will come calling.
Truely sad.
I just shake my head as the days continue to pass ever more quickly by.

Again, opinions. Bring on the facts.

Just kidding. I know you can't back anything you say up with real facts, or you would have already. All you have are other people's opinions. And even at that, you only post the opinions of people who support your fraudulent, false version of reality.
