Retailers giving up on HD Radio

"HD Slowly Passes Into The Night" "Radio Shack has given up on HD Radio. Their stores have two radios in stock and both are on clearance. One radio that sold for $249 is now on closeout at $82. The other was $149 and now sells for $99. If that isn’t ‘get this out of here’ pricing what is? It appears no new models are coming to replace them. No surprise really." http://tinyurl.com/5s8zfk "More HD Fun" "It was mentioned that retail stores such as Radio Shack are not placing these radios on the shelf. Also, distributor such as Crutchfield are liquidating stock, though I see a pretty decent selection there. How does a radio manufacturer keep up with the changes that Ibiquity keep making? It hurts. And though it is published that consumers are more aware of HD radio, are they buying into it? No." http://www.eisenhamerengineering.com/wordpress/?p=70 "American DX Report" "North American shortwave broadcasters have decided to conduct research into current shortwave listening patterns in North America, digital HD radio receivers are being removed from radio shop inventories in the United States, and some American AM mediumwave stations with IBOC capability are choosing to switch off due to interference problems and the lack of listeners with IBOC receivers." http://mt-shortwave.blogspot.com/200...dx-report.html It's only a matter of time, now. Now, if we could stop the flow of funds to Booble Struble things could get back to normal. |
