Re: [IRCA] IBOC/analog reception comparisons.



Quote:  “Re: only 35+ listen to terrestrial radio, who cooked that survey? Need one ask? News here. “

 

What I really said: “The comparison is based on research I have done and that done by other researchers as to attitudes towards different entertainment delivery systems. AM is considered "dead" by nearly anyone under 35, and "not cool, hip or relevant" to anyone under 25. "Digital" is perceived as being good, anything that is not digital is not. “

 

Very few people under 35 listen to _AM_ radio. Listening to FM is very lively under 35.

 

Please, try to at least paraphrase what I and others said, not what makes your point look cogent and pithy. I DID NOT say “only 35+ listen to terrestrial radio.” One poster stated that his impression was that young people did not use radio, but that was clearly labeled as an observation, not a survey.

Calling arguments 'false' impugns no one. Arguments aren't people. They are arguments.

 

Persons acting in good faith who unknowingly repeat others' false data aren't 'liars'. 

 

Many of us have been fooled. Why reject this perfectly honorable defense and instead falsely accuse others of calling one 'liar'?

 

Characteristic overblown protests well validate concerns about HD's destructive aspects.

PS - Though seen as relic from bygone era during greedy-gut 90's, 'good will' endures.

        Mr. Edmunds, tediously misquoted by some, seems to affirm this. If I

        gauge his words accurately, in advertising context, 'steak sustains, sizzle doesn't'.

 

        Long before HD's gaseously overstated non-allure fades, disenchanted

        public and broadcasters alike will have returned to what works.

Didn't Silent Movies supposedly sound radio's death knell? Or Talkies? Technicolor?  Sorry, Television.

 

 Television, said 'industry leaders', would finish radio once and for all. Then it was...

 

What saved radio from these certain albeit premature demises? Compelling programs.
