"Quality v. Quantity"
"When radio listeners ask for quality programming, the decision makers
hear quantity programming; hence, HD Radio and its smorgasbord of
insipid formats. When listeners, weary of pitiable audio processing
and pitch escalation on their terrestrial stations, ask for quality
audio - they hear quantity audio and they struggle to cram in more HD
side channels of auditory mediocrity."

HD Radio is a virtual sewer of formats.
