Why should formats that are not stations now be added as additional HD
channels. Where is the logic in that?
Because many formats are excluded because, with the finite number of FMs
in any market, there is not room for the second tier of formats. With HD
2 channels, there is.
Now, now, Eduardo... you know full well that the reason that a given
format is not available in a given market is because it's just not
profitable to program it.

That is absolutely untrue.

There are many profitable formats that could be done that are not being done
because there are even more profitable formats that "use up" all the
available FM channels in the market.



Now, weren't you the one that said that before consolidation, 50% of
all stations were not profitable?

Since there is only a 100 share in ratings and revenue, how does
doubling, or even trebling the number of channels in a market, even
under consolidation, make these additional number of channels profitable?

You can't have it both ways.

Forgive me for saying this, but.....


Now you DO sound like a shill.
