Default HD radio won't just go away.

People listened for content. You and your buddies at iBiquity have
destroyed the quality -- what there was -- of the remaining content.
Most people are now listening to their digial audio players, not to
the FMs.

They won't get the news.

How has iBiquity destroyed the quality of FM? There is no degradation of the
FM analog signal to add HD, and saying so is an exaggeration or a lie.

Most people, as in 96% of them, are listening to the radio each week....
same as 1965 when Arbiytron began.

Good luck stopping the internet, Tardo. You have a lot of work to do.

There's no need. The internet and tradional broadcast radio/tv can
coexist.

Internet radio will eliminate the need for outdated modes of
broadcasting. You can't fight progress.

You can't fight consumer desire either. Just because YOU think
internet transmission is better doesn't mean the People will agree.
Look at the colossal failure called WebTV ("bring internet to your
set"). Consumers ignored it.

I'd call it a "lie". I still listen to FM, driving across the country
on business trips, and I hear absolutely NO degradation in the
signal. (I wouldn't even know HD exists, if it weren't for the ads.)
