Eduardo is just angry about the latest Arbitron study of the HD Radiofarce
"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." http://www.hear2.com/2008/04/arbitronedison.html |

All involved with HD know it is a long term proposition, not a quick fix. Since the costs are very low for the top market stations to "do" HD, there is plenty of time to let more and more receivers get into the market over the next 5 to 7 years. |

As Arbitron stated, that is not going to change. If HD Radio was going to take-off, it would have done so, already, and you know it! |

Eduardo - You really are detached from reality. You don't get it. Nobody in the U.S. wants iBiquitys HD system - not yesterday, not today, not next year. If not for their business in South America they would be out of business today. It's not a long term proposition anymore. It's becoming shorter and shorter every day. Take a look at iBiquitys website. They're absolutely frantic about getting stations to sign on. Do-it-now is how they want it. That doesn't sound long-term to me or anyone else. Investors are seeing the light and Struble and his bandits know it. The clock is ticking down. Also, Eddy boy, I knew Edwin Armstrong and Armstrong you're not. To place him in the same sentence with you, iBiquity or anything else going on today in radio is a travesty. You should be ashamed of yourself. By the way, did you start your used car business yet? jw |

Consumer interest will increase as prices decline. It took CD players 8 years to get to where a portable was under a hundred bucks. |

You would have to be well into your 70's to have known him as an adult... maybe that explains your luddite values. |

After all, the same persons you brand as Luddites have, historically: been on the internet, users of Satellite Radio--and in many cases, satellite TV--listeners to podcasts, and/or internet Radio. That's hardly Luddism, Brother. It's just a more discriminating approach to the merits of a specific technology. The objections to HD radio are not a blanket objection to new technology. They are objections three to this technology: The absurd price and ongoing fee structure, the failure to live up to its hype, and the insane amounts of interference generated. That's not Luddism. What's more, is that you know that. Present an alternative that generates no interference and the objections to HD radio will go away. You know that, too. But your inability to speak rationally in non-corporate speak about this topic, except when you drag out the 'L'-word is making you sound desperate, David. More to the point, your inability to preach in something other than iBiquity-speak, makes you sound evermore the shill. If you really want them to embrace your point...talk to them, not at them. Something you tell your talent every day. You're a master debater. But you're not very persuasive. Persuasion is what your trying to achieve, isn't it? |

You're amazing! Also, If ibiquity were "fully funded" as you wrongly state they wouldn't be looking for new revenue streams all the time. Point is, they're light years away from self-supporting. It's a race to see how long it takes for investors to finally realize Stubble, or... I mean Struble, is an idiot. By the way, he occupies 90% of his time looking for funds. jw |

Where did you come up with that one? You're amazing! Hit Wikipedia and enter "luddite". That will explain his use of the word. Basically, it's a broad term referring to those who object to new techology to hold back progress. It's not a very precise term. Nor is it correctly used in this application. Also, If ibiquity were "fully funded" as you wrongly state they wouldn't be looking for new revenue streams all the time. Point is, they're light years away from self-supporting.
