IBOC and HD are the same thing.


Yes, I know that. But it is neather in-band, nor high definition. It
is sanctioned splatter that everyone in your circle pretends isn't
there, and the "content" is monkey-chatter, dropouts and compression
artifacts.

One is the technical term, the other is the
marketing term. And it sounds great.


Sounds like ****, no matter what you call it. You'd know that if you
listened using something with better frequency response than a
telephone handset. To many people, those artifacts *hurt*.
