I'm not interested enough to follow up on it. I already waisted my time on the Samsung site looking for vaporware. My X5 has HD. Third generation and marvelous. Takes FMs in HD to and beyond the useful analog contour, and AMs on clean frequencies beyond the onset of noise on analog. During the storms two weeks ago, I could get KNX HD for news well into Riverside County, while the analog signal was unlistenable due to the lightening and atmospherics. Samsung does not promote the HD chip to consumers. It has certainly spent a lot of time with iBiquity and its shareholders, though. That's all well and good, but unless Toyota makes it standard it ain't gonna fly. And they won't and it won't, unless Ibiquity pays them big bongos to do it, like the satcasters did. |

There is the very teensy problem of it actually EXISTING. Yes it is a SMALL matter but important. -- Telamon Ventura, California |

Less than a third of radio listening is in the car. Less than 20% of all cars are Toyotas... and the average US car is 8 years old. Automotive is part of it, but clock radios, office radios, kitchen radios, portables, etc. are where most listening takes place. |

Those figures look like local, Seattle data taken out of context and, perhaps, for a limited demographic. In car listening is around or under a third of all listening. In New York, in car listening ranges, book to book, from 24% to 27% of listening. In the world's car capital, Los Angeles, in car is 33%. In smaller markets, where commute times are lower, the figure is around 30%. Unlike you, I have actual access to data from many, many Arbitron markets. |

Why would someone listen to hideous over the air commercial radio at home if they have broadband and access to thousands of few or none commercials stations? The reason CC doesn't put their stuff on Shoutcast is that they'd rather not call attention to the competition. |
