"Arbitron/Edison study chills the already thin air of HD Radio"

"All you need to know about this research is this: It says relatively
few know about HD. It says that number hasn't gone up. And it implies
that folks are aware of what they care about, not vice versa. It also
strongly suggests this isn't going to change any time soon - as in,
forever."

So you are saying that IBOC has crapped out even before the second
generation radio receivers made it out the door?

We had second generation in 2006. We now await the third generation.

Yup, and here's why, along with total consumer antipathy:

"HD Radio"

"Until now, portable HD Radio receivers have been unavailable because
the chipsets needed by this technology required too much power to be
practical for a battery-operated device. However, in January 2008 at
the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas iBiquity unveiled a
prototype of a new iPod-sized portable receiver. It is based on a new
chipset developed by Samsung. Although portable, it is still a
relatively power-hungry device (it will run on an average set of
alkaline batteries in about two hours, according to an iBiquity
engineer)."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HD_Radio

"Sirius Satellite Radio"

"Sirius Stiletto 100 - the first portable Sirius radio that allows
subscribers to listen to live Sirius programming... The unit's
batteries give the user approximately 30 hours of life."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirius_Satellite_Radio

So much for portable HD Radio!

That's funny. I only see one generation.

There are a bunch of things you don't see, starting with the fact that radio
listeners don't use unacceptably weak signals.

What's the point? It doesn't matter what generation receiver is available if
there is nothing worth listening to then who cares.
