Default House Commerce Committee to investigate HD/IBOC!

"Whatever is said, whatever is written, IBOC will be over sooner
rather than later. Radio is becoming a financial train wreck, and
Congress is putting the thumbscrews on the corrupt FCC. A federal
court just ruled that the FCC ignored interference problems with
broadband-over-power-lines (BPL) and IBOC is also being pointed to by
the House Commerce Committee. Very shortly the massive failure of HD
Radio in the marketplace, its endless technical faults, the
confiscatory licensing, and the lousy receivers will all be revealed
for all to see. IBOC is already a bad consumer-electronics joke. And
its fortunes are about to take a decided turn for the worse. Say and
believe what you will, IBOC's fate is no longer in the dirty hands of
iBiquity, the Alliance and the NAB."
