I'm hearing some very interesting rumors about iBiquity, the company
behind terrestrial radio's savior technology HD Radio (just a little
refresher, the "HD" doesn't actually stand for "high definition" -
funny huh?). Word has it that iBiquity is experiencing so much
financial mayhem that they've stopped all projects, both current and
future, and are regrouping or possibily worse.

Rather than posting messages with vague unsupported claims why don't
you give us the details. Where did you read the rumors, who wrote
them and most importantly what specifically was written (or spoken).

iBiquity is owned by private equity firms and by the major station groups.
It does not put out financials to Wall Street.- Hide quoted text -

I wonder why - just like Clear Channel, that want to go private. Both
companies are DOA.

Right. Clear is cash flowing in a significant manner, and they feel the
market undervalues them. That is why they are going private.

iBiquity is private for the same reason many companies want to stay private:
they do not want to live the quarterly harassment of earnings reports,
Sarbox, and running the business to please Wall Street. It allows more long
range planning, and less knee jerking to the street.
