Someone made a mistake. All the references to a radio on a chip on the Samsung site were analog. Looks like there is some confusion here as they do have chips for satellite and HD but not AMBCB and FMBCB. Your mistake is depending on a website for data only of interest to manufacturers, iBiquity and its shareholders. The chip is, obviously, digital as HD is digital. Your mistake is that they announce any semiconductor development on their web site. They may limit the amount of data for proprietary reasons but all projects are announced with some detail. Telemon, Why would a semiconductor company announce all their development projects on the internet? This would tell all their competitors what they are doing. Most companies do not disclose development activities until there is a competitive reason to do so. They are a publicly traded company and need to let their stockholders know what they are working on. Check the news here http://www.samsung.com/us/business/semiconductor/index.html Really? Public companies actually tell their stockholder the details of their development plans? Yes. This happens every day. Not in any company I've worked for. If what you propose were true, what would the value of a confidentiality agreement be? Where have you worked that sales has not stated that the latest device will be available on some date? Sales is trying to create demand before the parts are made so they can sell them the day the parts can ship. How else do you think things work? You must have a pretty sheltered work life there buddy. Why not look at the link. Read any news service about the stock market. Just about any company any day is telling you what the next big development is going to be that they are working on. When I worked for a semiconductor company I was always busting my butt to make some deadline created in a press news release. It's no different where I work now since I still work in manufacturing. Believe me if Samsung is or has been working on a HD radio on a chip you would see a press release about it on their web site. Everything else is there like HD TV devices so why not an HD radio chip? Eduardo got you convinced it is a big secret? Well think again. OK, provide links to all the products your company has in development. It should be easy if this is all public information. I'm not pointing out the company I work for on Usenet. Any company out there makes forward looking statements in press releases followed by all the disclamers. Go read any business news outlet about any manufacturing company. Go read the link to the Samsung web site I posted or any other semiconductor maker. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

There's no reason for them to be included in your so called "ratings" which measure nothing but a dying medium's last gasp. Shoutcast (and Icecast, Live 365, etc.) are where the top dollar demos are going for good music radio and NPR/CommunityRadio. There is no reason to subject one's self to the torture that is commercial radio in the 21st century. It is painful to listen to sonically (and HD sounds worse on AM) and only a complete loser would voluntarily absorb the content. Streams, satellite, HD2 channels and analog or HD terrestrial stations are all included in the Arbitron radio ratings. Additionally, there are audits of streaming "stations" and, as I said, the listening level of Shoutcast across the US would not qualify all its channels combined for the minimum reporting standard for radio ratings. In other words, think of the worst radio station in your market, and it has as many or more listeners than Live 365 or Shoutcast. live365 I don't think you grasp the concept. https://www.sky.fm/pro/order.php If you go to the site, it says skyfm is currently serving 17117 users. That is spread across 30 stations. If you go to shoutcast, you'll see that many of the feeds support 1000 or fewer connections. Combine that with the low bitrates offered for many connections and I fail to see how they seriously compete with a single station that may have 10,000+ listeners. You totally don't get it. There are thousands of web radio stations. They are growing and you are bleeding. You were partially right a few weeks ago; talk is going to FM. The music is going to the web. You don't even know who you are replying to. I am replying to the twooze of youze, apparently. But moreso to the group as well so be it. |

The chip was most recently touted by some of iBiquity's investors, via the heads of major broadcast groups at the SCBA conference in LA two weeks ago Tuesday. It's written up in Radio Ink, with clear references to the coming "HD explosion" based on the new chip. Eddie, you're like the Titantic, you're playing music while the ship is sinklng. Absurd. |
