FM didn't require people to throw out their old radios and buy new ones.

It didn't? How did you listen to FM on an AM radio. Similarly, HD does not
require anyone buy a new radio unless they want to... the analog signals
continue to be broadcast. Of course, you had the choice of simply not buying
an �FM radio, which is what 99% of the people did for the first 25 years of
FM broadcasting.



Color TV didn't require people to throw out their B/W sets and buy an
expensive new color set. Color TV didn't interfere with existing B/W
television services and was still viewable on existing B/W sets.

Just as current radios will continue to receive analog signals.

Too bad, no one is buying HD radios, after two years.
