HD/IBOC requires initial, expensive, and on-going hardware and
licensing fees to iNiquity.
The initial fee is less than your morning personality makes... in a
day or
two. And the ongoing fee is relatively minor.
And the shilling goes on and on and on...
Yes - amazing ! I wonder, what Eduardo get out of this B.S.? This is
fun in a sick way, anyway.
Isn't the firm he works for an Ibiquity investor? As with many things,
one must
follow the money.- Hide quoted text -

Of course, Univison is an investor/supporter of this HD Radio farce,
and that is why Eduardo shills 24/7 for HD radio - he knows that the
radio-geeks need to be convinced first:
As I responded to dxAss, the investment in iBiquity was less than the cost
of a single studio at our LA facilities. In the overall picture, one can
consider these "broadcaster investments" as support for a single-source AM
and FM solution to the qustion of how to "go digital" on terrestrial radio.
"The number of Spanish-language households in Austin [that] have
bought an HD receiver has to be close to zero." (It's worth noting
that Border Media Partners doesn't have Web sites for its stations,
either, so maybe it's not the best gauge of cutting-edge technology.
Spanish-language giant Univision is supporting the launch.)"
Actually, the Jonny Ramírez show on one of our HD2 channels in Austin, and
originated in San Antonio, gets lots of calls form that market, and there is
both advertiser and consumer interest. Since the Tejano fan has no other
choice in Austin, and the music is part of a distinct lifestyle, the early
response has been considerable.- Hide quoted text -

"How to identify a Mexican"
"Mexicans are stupid. Mexicans are shiftless and dirty. They come from
a dirty nation called Mexico. Most Mexicans make and distribute what
they call Chicle or what Americans call 'gum'. Due to the flooded
Chicle market, many Mexicans try to enter the U.S. They frequently
resort to crime to pay for their numerous offspring. They also make
tortillas. And Tamales."
"Mexicans from Northern Mexico listen to obnoxious mariachi tunes at
the highest possible volume. For those ignorant of this particular
genre of music, it can be identified for its use of the accordion, a
falsetto sreeching "aii aii" and blaring trumpets. Southern Mexicans
listen to obnoxious Mexican Polka tunes at the highest possible
volumes. Regardless of what region of Mexico they are from, Mexicans
tend to listen to their music at volumes that make you want to kill
them."

Ah, so this explains the overwhelming interest in HD Radio!
