stereo was mismanged and look what happend.. it died.

It's different.....

The FCC refused to pick an AM stereo standard...therefore there were
competing and incompatible systems on the air. ANd manufacturers had to
choose which format to create radios for it. The "market chooses"
approach took too long, and when a system became the standard, there was
no music left on AM.

In this case there is ONE standard! And everybody is on board with it!

Car manufacturers don't have to pick a standard, stations dont have to
pick a standard, listeners don't have to pick a standard.


Listeners, by and large, have chosen their preferred standard: ordinary
analog, which they can already receive without replacing all their existing
radios (well, much of the time anyway.. since IBOC interferes with reception
of adjacent, second adjacent, and even in some cases, co-channel reception.
