"HD radio pumps up volume"

Notable quote:

"Fewer than half a million Americans use a new technology called HD
radio..."

Even our friend Ramsey had this to say:

"Fewer than 1 in 600 Americans use HD radio"

Notable quote:

"So the average consumer is more likely to die by accidental drug
overdose or by hanging, strangulating, or suffocating themselves than
they are to own an HD radio. The consequences of this, depsite all of
the industry's herculean efforts, are profound. You can only present
our industry as being at the beginning of a technology for so long,
until eventuallly the "beginning" becomes the "middle" and finally the
"end." Our two year heavy on-air promotional effort? Almost over. Our
two year pledge to keep the new HD stations commercial free? Almost
over. Is there any question in your mind this is not rolling out the
way it should?"

No doubt, the number is probably less than 100,000 - need I say more ?
