AM IBOC has pretty much flatlined.  The numbers really haven't changed 
significantly in the past year.  More telling is the fact that some 
very prominent stations, such as WGN and WJR, have turned it off 
completely, and don't show any inclination to turn it back on again.  
The diehards, most of whom are iBiquity investors, are sticking with 
it for now, but it's not gaining any traction at all.  I think it's a 
dead system walking.
