Hd Radio Sales - Did I Get The Math Right?
Lets see now - 400 Million spent on HD Radio ads and 300,000 radios
sold so far - and that's probably inflated. Ok, that amounts to....... $1333.33 spent for each listener - roughly speaking of course. Did I get the math right? Is that a valid way of looking at it?. Now its possible that there are two people listening to the same radio. OK......That amounts to.....$666.66 per listener. Help me out here. Doesn't seem too successful to me. J.R. Stocks. Could you help me on this? jw |

You can buy this fine plastic radio for $89.00 This might help. jw Having to be put on "sale" means no sale. Here is a review from Wired on that piece-of-crap: "Remember those crappy $15 AM/FM/cassette radios from the 80s? The HD100 looks just like one and has the sound to match. Basically a glorified clock radio, it has a chintzy, careless interface with speakers that spew a tinny unrefined sound. Frankly we'd be happier keeping our money and sitting in silence." If you look at my blog down the right hand side, you will quickly figure out why HD radios are so expensive, yet cheaply made: http://hdradiofarce.blogspot.com/ |

So, wouldn't that leave $2,700 spent on each listener per HD radio? |

RF Burns,

Doing-the-Math - For These Listeners would come out to be about $1.33 for every 'potential' Radio Listener; that could be "Sold-on-the-Idea" of "HD" Radio -as- Being Something They Both "Want" {It's New ! :o} and Have-to-Have. {It's Digital ! :o} $NOTE$ - A $1.33 per Radio Listener per Year with Hourly and Daily Radio ADZs {PSAs} is : cheap, Cheap. CHEAP ! -note- As soon as Congress / The FCC Mandates All Digital Mode AM/FM/DS Radios : All the former "HD" Radios ADZs will be Income-Off-Setting "PSAs" for the Radio Stations. This is a $-}} = I See Money Big Smile Happy Face $-}} RF Burns - You are Focused on short-term 'results'. While the "HD" Radio 'Alliance' is Interested in Long-Term [Bottom-Line] "Results" over the next Decade for AM/FM Radio. http://www.mediaweek.com/mw/news/rec..._id=1001614953 The "HD" Radio 'Alliance' has the Money and Commitment for a 5~10 Year Program to Transition the USA to "HD" AM/FM Radio; plus the Political Resources to Make-It-Happen by an Act-of-Congress and/or Rulling by the FCC; which I suspect is coming in the next 3 Years to require that all 'new' Radios being Built or Imported in to the USA will be All Digital-Mode AM/FM/DS "HD" Radios with Dual Mode IBOC and a Built-in Direct-Satellite Interface. NOTE - The Price Point of these All Digital-Mode AM/FM/DS "HD" Radios will Drop Annually over a Period of several Years : [ Using a 1/3 (-33%) Price Reduction per Year ] $500 for Year # 1 $335 for Year # 2 $225 for Year # 3 $150 for Year # 4 $100 for Year # 5 SO - At the End of Five (5) Years the Price of the 'new' All Digital-Mode AM/FM/DS "HD" Radios will be back at the present day Price to US Consumers for the old Analog "Only' AM/FM Radio that has been around for 40 Years.

I too thought that. But all the stuff from my Mother's basement next door ended up at my sisters. I have no idea if they are complete, but am told the entire 2-drawer file is there. Why don't you run down and check? You are much closer than I am. |

Now get a clue as there are no radios with new optimized chip sets because there are no optimized chip sets to put in them yet. What could your next argument be? That they are keeping the new radios a secret? The chips are shipping. Production samples were given manufacturers at CES per the Radio World article and per iBiquity updates. Those are promotional "promises." There are no "chips" shipping. I don't expect marketers to keep details straight. I expect them to promote ignoring details that do not fit in their outlook. You are just upset that the chips are not going to you for approval. I don't work for them and I'm not buying them so naturally they are not looking for my approval so why would i be upset. I want to borrow some money from you to fabricate a new chip design. I promise to pay you back when they sell. -- Telamon Ventura, California |
