"What Wal*Mart's HD Radio announcement means"

"But there's a dark side to that distribution, and it's this: What if
simply making radios available isn't enough to induce consumers to buy
and use them? As I've said before, the issue with HD has never been
about availability - as we will soon discover. The issue has been
about the fundamental value proposition."

It doesn't mean jack-**** - HD radios are not selling. This expensive
in-dash HD radio would need to be installed somewhere else - only
lower-class citizens shop at Wal Mart, just like K Mart and any big-
box retailer. I shopped at Wal Mart, at the beach, and I felt like I
stepped into a thrid-world country.
