see in Q3 to Q4.

These were the prototypes.

Those were not prototypes. They were units like the Pioneer car stereos (the
ones nearly every engineer had) with HD and the BA Receptor.

You think what you want but your definition does not match up what
anyone in the manufacturing industry thinks.

OK, so what's the actual difference between these generations? Hardware?
Software?

And which of these generations are ready for subscription radio?

Chipset, software.

And which of these generations are ready for subscription radio?

None. I have never heard subscription radio talked about, in fact. Most
subscription based services are using other technologies.

David, David, David...now that's in direct conflict to something
discussed here a year ago. A conversation YOU chimed in on and admitted
that conditional access has been under test.

Now, c'mon...you may be busy, but you're not so busy you can'r
remember your own participation in a conversation on a worldwide forum.
Are you?

Or is there another reason you conveniently forgot?

Peter, what makes you think David is busy? he seems to live here
on this newsgroup 24/7.

That's not subscription radio, that is data with a fee. The things I have
heard of being tested are data streams, like stock quotes, weather, traffic
info (that's the biggie) and such, but not programming. FMeXtra is the
preferred substitute for subscription services over an FM station, as it can
carry many more program services than HD at decent quality and with the
ability to lock usage to enabled subscribers. There are LA stations already
with two or three subscriber based FMeXtra channels going.

Now, c'mon...you may be busy, but you're not so busy you can'r remember
your own participation in a conversation on a worldwide forum. Are you?

Again, it's data streaming that is or was being tested. Not pay-for-play
audio channels.

Or is there another reason you conveniently forgot?

No forgetting... it didn't exist.

Splitting frog hairs, brother. Conditional access is conditional
access. It's ALL data. Audio, weather, traffic, stock quotes--In the
digital universe it's ALL data. If conditional access can be applied to
ONE commodity in a digital feed, it can be applied to ALL commodities in
a digital feed.

Subscription radio. By definition.
