See the video here. (Sorry, embedding isn't enabled. I hate that.) And
the video is tagged with a spot for a car that features...XM Satellite
Radio. The Devil is in the details, of course. And the issue in my
mind is the "as we know it" part of Cramer's statement. Nothing else
remains static. Why should radio?"

Comments: "I think music radio is dead or dying. Companies are still
spending tons of $$ on music radio but it is almost like they are
waiting for the best of the unknowns to rise to the top so the money
can be shifted there. I think talk radio is vibrant. Watching music
radio die sucks, but it had its time and it was a damned good run. The
companies that run music stations have sucked the life out of the
stations."

Ha! Ha! SUCKA! I told you that music-oriented FMs are screwed! AM news/
talk/sports is radio last bastion:

"News/Talk/Sports:Radio's Last Bastion"

"Music FMs of any flavor are utterly screwed... Right now -- while FMs
are losing the music audience to new media -- satellite radio is
offering more News/Talk/Sports programming than we can fit on AM
radio..."

And, I'm not even in the broadcast industry, as you! SUCKA!

What's the matter, Eduardo - no response? GMs and PDs already know
that HD Radio is DOA:

"Where is the Cool, the Content, the Charge?"

"Here is another bad sign: almost every time I speak with a GM or PD
about HD Radio, they say, ...it's a non-starter, isn't it? If we don't
believe in HD Radio, who will?"
