No, you don't have to do anything. If you were interested in
understanding the technology of IBOC rather than making uninformed
comments about it, it would be a wise thing to do. But apparently
you're content to talk about things you "know" that aren't actually
true. Whatever lights your board.


I know as much as I need to know.


Yes, that's the crux of the problem.


You don't want to hear the simple truth: no broadcast system can sound
properly at 40 or 48 kbps. Both Sirius and HD use rates like that, or
less. And therefore they sound bad. I've heard them both and yes: in
practice even on a rental car stereo they do not match the FM produced
by the same receiver and speakers.
