The fact is, progress happens. Change happens. You can't fight them.

On the other hand, sometimes progress DOESN'T happen. Remember
WebTV? It was supposed to bring internet to everyone's televisions.
Fail.

I've learned that not all technologies win; Just because YOU want to
see Wireless Internet sending music to people's cars, doesn't mean it
will succeed. CONSUMERS decide, not us, and they might decide to
ignore this new idea (same way they ignored Super VHS and Super Audio
CD).

The thing is, in this case the choice is literally a no brainer.
Consumers will be able to decide between HD radio, which lets them
hear a few big local broadcasters delivering generic programming vs
the thousands of stations accessible via the internet, bundled no
doubt with email, web access, the whole shebang. Think about it.
Internet radio will let people hear EVERYTHING they can hear on HD,
together with thousands of OTHER things as well.

Not much of a choice.
