Bingo.

Just like FM.

It wasn't until they were aware of programming that interested them.

And there's been no effort to market the HD-2's programming.

Not so much.

Very much. Only the time line is different.

It wasn't until they were aware of programming that interested them.

It still hasn't changed since I last mentioned that you probably don't
have time to wait as long.

Why? Is there a finish line?

It can take as long as it takes.

And there's been no effort to market the HD-2's programming.

By who? Maybe not on a national level, but I've heard individual
stations do it (as I also mentioned before).

(As was mentioned before) Individual stations have marketed HD as a
whole...and have mentioned the new "stations between the stations"....but no
effort ahs been made to tell the public "Hey if you like Jazz/Folk/70's,
etc....then get an HD radio and you can get these all the time!"

I know tons of Jazz and Classical fans who are unhappy their stations went
away in recent years. If they knew that $100 would get them the format
unlimited and without commercials, then they would certainly part with the
$100. The problem is they don't know what formats are available.

Wanna good guess why they don't push those extra channels/formats? I will
venture a damn good guess that it's because they don't want to lose the ad
income from the people going to those other channels where there are no ads.
