Anyone know the current status of the HD radio implementation that has
been forced upon us? How many receivers were sold during the Xmas
season? How many new stations have started or terminated
transmitting? How long will it take fior the noise to stop, etc?

The audio compression gets fatiguing after a few minutes. After an
hour, you're ready to kill.

"Can Sony Make HD Radio A Winner?"

"So, the old consumers don't want HD. Young consumers think the
concept is laughable. Big retailers can't sell it. And radio companies
won't invest in it. Sounds like a winner to me."

Is this the Sony that looks like a car battery? LMFAO!
