More locally-unique HD-2 channels are part of the "second generation."
 

From Radio-info.com:

More locally-unique HD-2 channels are part of the "second generation."

Some of these have already gotten attention - CBS Radio's revival of the
call letters of WNEW-FM, New York, and the "Live Rock from the WMMR
Archives" by Greater Media in Philly. Some formats on the multicasting list
being announced today haven't gotten as much print, and the HD Radio
Alliance is playing up their local-ness and diversity. Like: Emmis' "Local
107"/local artists, in Austin. "Indie Rock" on Clear Channel HD-2 signals in
Portland (OR), Oklahoma City, and Seattle. And Entercom's "Rock Independent
Radio - 94.7 Too" based off of KRNK. That means Portland, Oregon's going to
have two "indie" stations competing - at least on the market's small number
of extant HD receivers and then online. Independent rock also wins a helping
hand from Clear Channel's Coachella Festival-inspired "eRockster" HD-2
offering in L.A., Philadelphia and D.C. There are also some hyper-local
channels, such as Clear Channel's "Radio Free Hawaii." While Beasley's doing
a country "Gretchen 99.9" for Miami, CC's featuring "Old Skool Hip Hop" in
Boston, and CBS Radio's putting "Chick Rock" on in Dallas. Notice that most
of these are music-centered and often relatively jock-free. The Alliance's
Diane Warren says "we know from our research that if consumers hear content
they can relate to in their market - and they can find it easily on
HDRadio.com - the programming will inspire them to buy an HD Radio."

"CLEAR CHANNEL PULLS THE PLUG ON SOME HD RADIO STATIONS"

"After conducting a survey of 340 HD2 stations to determine their
programming needs, the folks at Clear Channel have dumped a number of
their HD 'Format Lab' stations due to a lack of demand."

Yea, there's a real demand for HD Radio - LOL!

This is not a question of lack of demand for HD radio....just a lack of
demand for the formats that were nixed...like the all-polka channel.

(CC Calls each of the formats a 'station'.)

In rality, the formats will be repalced with more mainstream formats.

More "mainstream" formats.... that's industry speak for more
rap/hiphop/gangsta/dancedance/urban/.....

In other words, more of the same old crap that you can hear more than
adequately on your $10 pocket radio or $20 boombox, without paying out a
****load of money for a piece of IBOC battery-eating trash that won't pick
up anything without an external antenna anyway..

The HD channels are just clever reworks off the main analog channels -
most of the channels are just jukeboxes and offer consumers no
compelling content. HD Radio is a farce:

BAD - Yeah that's about it. ~ RHF

Same could be said for the $3K Bose Sound System too.

An IBOC HD-Radio with a Docking Station for an MP3
Player, iPod, or an Memory Chip Slot will be the 'bridge'
for many younger Radio Listeners.
