"FCC Chairman says Sirius-XM ruling possible by June 30th"

"Regarding the open device condition, we agreed with the Chairman that
should the Commission permit any entity to manufacture a satellite
radio receiver, it would obviate the need for a mandate that all
satellite radios have an HD radio chip, or that they be interoperable.
In that case, the market would inevitably provide for satellite radio
receivers with a wide variety of features." (emphasis added)."

"Takeaway: This is a strong suggestion that iBiquity's proposal is
losing ground in favor of open access. That's a good thing in my
opinion - requiring that HD Radio be included seems to have little to
do with the "public interest" and more to do with "iBiquity's
interest."
