But I will pay for FREE over-the-airHD Radio.

Since I don't care about a big-screen tv, my reason for going hdtv is
for content. �But WHERE is all the new content on the sub-channels?
After all this time, finally two local stations have added a sub-
channel with new content. �Because of this, I purchased an analog-to-
digital converter box to get the content on my regular tv. �EVENTUALLYHD radiowill have the content.

Most radio listeners don't give a hoot about dxing;HD radiowill
therefore be a nice upgrade for them. �I still run across people who
don't know what a navigation system is, who have never heard of
satellite radio, who still had no idea analog tv was shutting off next
year, etc. �It takes time for the general public to become aware of
new technology. �HD RadioWILL succeed.


HD Radio never got off the ground, and is failing:
