Most people don't even know what HD radio is and if they do they don't generally want it. Most people that are serious about music get satellite radio.


A few years ago most people didn't even know what satellite radio is.
JUST LIKE HD RADIO, satellite radio started as a PREMIUM in the LUXURY
cars. *Then, after SEVERAL YEARS, became an option on most cars. *I am
surprised that so many people are so clueless as to how new products
start and develop into the mainstream. *Just like navigation systems.
They were first offered as an option on the Luxury cars about 9 or 10
years ago, and STILL this option is NOT offered on all models of
cars. *IT TAKES TIME for the mainstream to become informed. *Not to
mention that MOST PEOPLE WHO ARE SERIOUS about spending their hard-
earned money WISELY would NEVER pay for a satellite subscription.



GA - It's 1958* and FM (Mono) Radio is a Premium Option
in New Cars. ~ RHF

* Then by 1978 everyone had FM-Stereo Radio in their Cars,
Homes amd Offices.
