Re: [IRCA] AM IBOC editorial update



Initial scheme: Jam & burn out citizens & competition, in manner of early 
Mobsters. 
 
  Wanna make Creator laugh? State plans. Year ago, lil' Bobbie whined, 
'analog will be with us forever'. He expressed frank doubts re 'our inevitable 
digital future'. Things change...
 
Some iBLOC station wants to go all digital? Should they be careful what they 
ask for?
 
  Analog competitors will welcome former listeners. Avaricious HD fatsos 
still believe, in era of foreclosures & three-plus dollar per gallon gas, that 
everyone will hear all digital hash, jump for joy, sprint to Vlad-Mart, and buy 
ten HD stooge radios to replace some of their analog sets? Of course they will. 
I'm buying fifty as I type this......
 
  AM/FM weatherproof sets are five bucks. Many spend well to downgrade audio 
to MP3 & iPod. HD Axis missed the turnip truck. HD cheerleaders can drive down 
the hill, behind old Loews' State Drive-in, by Amtrak lines, and hold a 
BigKorpse circlexxxx. Listeners don't care. Average Jomo owns five - ten radios.  
Estimate of 800 million radios is conservative. 
 
People have a saying, 'what's in if for me'. The more they know about HD, the 
more uninterested they become. There's nothing in it for them.
 
HD Axis can air  "Papa Doc Conducts Haiti's Greatest Live Public 
Executions!", on HD-13. People already looked at HD, and continued along their merry way. 
It's over.
 
No amount of jamming & waiting out the enemy - us - will change that.
 
Kill AM? Who cares? These bugs are all about greed. Why should businesses 
advertise on HD stations that lack listeners? Or did some MBA Biz-Model reinvent 
reality?
 
 What part of Flatline sales do these greedy-guts not understand?
 
Radio is content driven. People don't care about technoglitz. They'll strain 
thru static to hear compelling programs. They'll likewise ignore 'crystal 
clear' safe, focus-groupthink shows.
 
BigKorpseorate's moribund HD scheme, as with all criminal designs, carries 
the seeds of its own destruction.
 
Gotta go outside. Pull weeds. 
 
                                                                Dr. Zecchino
