66% of adults have no interest in HD radio! Dah
Interest in music or radio won't change. What will change is the device and
how people choose to what they want to hear.
Playing the same hits over and over isn't a strategy of the future, because
unlike the past listeners have total control over what artist's and songs
are played. These same features found on Ipods and internet music portals,
which will also be married with wireless devices, because of Wimax, wifi,
G17 and other technologies. Radio in all forms as we know won't go away, but
it will morph into something different to stay alive. Your kids don't know
what a 45 is. And their kids won't likely know what AM/FM was either...
