Is that would be the vaporware chip-set and the BS software?

Oh, set us straight on the details with some links please.

It would seem, in the HD radio biz, that no plan happens until it
happens.

From about a year ago:

"RadioGuard-capable radio receivers are planned to be introduced to
the market by the holidays."

Not also, in direct conflict to David's denial, that the conditional
access specifically includes subscription access to audio content.
I've never heard of pay per program or pay per channel propositions;
That's false on it's face. We discussed them here. I fact, Frank was
the one who came up with the information that testing was underway, and
you acknowledged that he was correct.
There is data via HD-3, but nothing I have ever heard indicates audio
programming fpr pay.

Once again, for those not wishing to admit they've participated in
the conversation:


From about a year ago:

"Services that could be made possible through RadioGuard include
pay-per-listen options for live concerts or other events, improved reading
services for the blind, private channels for emergency services, and free
opt-in events sponsored by advertisers. So HD Radio will not just be
competing with satellite radio for listening time, but soon will be
competing for subscription dollars as well."


Straight from iBiquity at NAB. That's audio. Concerts are audio.
Advertiser sponsored events...that includes audio, too. Competing for
subscription dollars with satellite radio....That's not just aviation
weather, there, Brother. That's audio.

And you participated in this conversation a year ago. At the same time
iBiquity was making this announcement.

So, once again, you've got inside information about future 'trade
secret' HD technology, but you're ignorant about iBiquity's own publicly
announced tests?

That won't fly.

Either you're an informed broadcaster or you aren't. Which is it?

Either way, you're not telling the truth to somebody.

iBiquity simply confirmed that the HD system was capable of addressing
receivers were this a requested feature. At present, I do not believe any
radio in production is addressable.


Nice try. That's not the suject of this convesation. And your
continuing attempt to divert the discussion to your denials of fact say
a lot about the intent of much of what you've posted in this forum.

The topic of conversation is:

Are they trying to do it? And are you telling the truth? You've
been saying all along conditional programming access is not in the plan
for HD, and you know this by virtue of your specialized and internal
knowledge not available to the public. By iBiquity's own admission, in
published word and practical test, conditional programming access IS
part of the HD plan. So, you're either knowingly not telling the truth,
or you're not as intimately informed as you claim.

Either way....Yes, they are trying to implement conditional access.

And no...you're not telling the truth.

By iBiquity's press. And your own words.



Which indicates that your arguments shilling HD are largely
irrelevant, as either mis- or dis- information.
