"News/Talk/Sports:Radio's Last Bastion"
"Music FMs of any flavor are utterly screwed... Right now -- while FMs are losing the music audience to new media -- satellite radio is offering more News/Talk/Sports programming than we can fit on AM radio... Meanwhile, also at the Consumer Electronics Show, at an event much-less-attended than the Sirius and XM press conferences, well- intended radio group executives mumbled through short scripted statements about commitment to HD radio. They do so in the shadow of these undeniable realities: 1. It doesn't work at night on AM radio. 2. It costs about $100K per station to convert. 3. Nobody owns receivers; and why would listeners spend several hundred dollars for an aftermarket installation, only to hear 18 commercial minutes, and not to hear CNBC or 2500+ baseball games?" http://ftp.media.radcity.net/ZMST/daily/IS031005.htm I've called your HD/IBOC bluff ! |
