Default Eduardo HD Radio Failed



Pocket-Radio wrote:

The online custom music site Pandora.com has 17 million registered
users total, does about a million unique users a day, and has between
100,000 and 200,000 listeners tuned in at any given moment. And that's
with no mass media advertising.

After two years and 400 million in radio ad time, Ibiquity led by
Bob Struble aka "BS" have sold 330,000 radio units and Arbitron says
nobody is listening. 330,000 HD radio units sold, that's if you
believe the numbers quoted from The Radio Alliance. And that doesn't
count units returned to big box stores from disappointed consumers.

The era of one size fits all Big Media is dying, and welcome to the
new world order of "have it your way"

This is the quote of the day from someone who is maybe 30. And the
heart of Eduardo's 25-to- 54 demos.

“Listening to radio is like listening to your friend’s ipod
with commercials”

Be afraid Eduardo be very afraid! Have you considered used car sales?
I think you'd be a natural.


The only thing 'Eduardo' would be good for is 'Pretend to Own'!

No money down!
