I doubt seriously that IBOC is going to help radio at all. Their
listener base is rapidly moving away from them to other media that
allows individualized playlists and infinite choice.

Would your iPod car transmitter need to be redesigned to transmit in
digital for your non-analog built-in car HDRadio?



That's likely a technological solution that will pass into history
before we get to non-analog built-in car radio.

More manufacturers are integrating iPod into their factory sound
systems. Not just an Aux jack but an actual iPod port with code to
access the iPod O/S from the radio face. I installed an aftermarket
interface in my car 6 years ago, and haven't been without that
functionality since, in any of my cars.

FM solutions to iPod connectivity have lost a lot of ground in the
last couple of years. They'll be hard to come by before long. Long
before analog passes from radios in the US.
