Re: [IRCA] HD Radio Crying Out to be Heard
Today's New York Times (Thu. 9 April) has this piece by
David Pogue in the State of the Art feature which is a
pretty fair analysis of HD Radio and where it is in the
marketplace today. It runs about 35 column-inches and is
on page B-1 (business).
The last paragraph says it all:
But the number that counts — people actually listening to HD radio — is
shockingly low. Unless the economy turns around, unless satellite goes
away, unless reception improves, unless HD gets a reputation for great shows
(and not just great sound), HD may have a tough slog ahead.
FM IBOC is circling the drain. AM IBOC is toast. Even if the economy
hadn't driven off a cliff. The recession and the potential demise of GM
and/or Chrysler only put the last nails in the 'ol coffin.
