IBOC destroys coverage (of other stations) even more.

Now if they were to quit trying to do stereo in the analog channel,

Analog is still the bread and butter of all stations. Crippling it for
the sake of promoting iBiquity's financial health is done at every
station's peril.

iBiquity just wants to make its system the digital radio standard so the
company has value when they sell it. As analog radio goes the way of
analog television they want to be like Qualcomm is with 3G. They aren't
making any money now.

There are revenue opportunities in HD for the broadcasters that go
beyond simple advertising spots. Stations that don't take advantage of
these opportunities aren't too bright.- Hide quoted text -

There are virtually no radios in listeners' hands, after five years -
no radios, no listeners, no revenue. IBOC is a malignant tumor eating
away at stations' revenues.

there is revenue....if you would stop your cut/paste/post and actually
listen for awhile.
