No, the FCC has made a judgement on how far and how long a

There has been no widespread complaints (if any at all), and
there
is
no

I've heard on and on about how great the HD-2 formats are

to
be,
but
all I've observed is more lame cookie-cutter radio taking
away
the
reception that I once enjoyed.

THe formats on HD are quiite similar to what was on FM in the
early

mid
60's. ?Music intensive, non-commercial, some simulcasting to

The audio quality is nothing to write home about either.

The public has had no complaints about HD audio quality. ?And
like
the
qualities of MP3's, which is "nothing to write home about"
either,
it's
"good enough" and the public isn't complaining.

But HD radio has caused us to adapt. ?My wife & I listen to
web
radio
more

the

I'd be interested in knowing where you are, and what
station(s)
you
can
no
longer listen too due to HD radio.

Nope. ?None of them. ?I have no allegiances. ?I just get a kick

Yup, a number of hits from Wall Street firms. Funny, how Price
Waterhouse searched on "iBiquity IPO" just after this story was leaked
- wonder, if they are involved? Da!

Like the others they want to see who the HD nutcake is.

Once they see your anonymous opinions...I'm sure they realize that they
are
from a disgruntled and mentally unstable person.

What I fund amusing, is that everytime I post, you counter-post with
nothing but personal attacks. Your lack of understanding of technology
is readily apparent.

Could it be, maybe it's because you are posting the same things over and
over again...and you don't respond to the criticism presented.

Posting the same thing over and over again makes you a pain in the ass. So
don't be surprised at the responses you get, regarless of what side you are
on.

Ignoring the counter argument, means you are not seriously involved in the
discussion, ergo, the responses you get.

One word hit and run answer just add to the noise, so thats what you get in
respnse.

Being the usenet gnat, usually just gets you swatted. thinking that all you
have to do is shout-down someone you dont agree...or beat them over the head
with countless posts with makes people not take
you seriously.

BTW...I don't think what he wrote is a "personal attack". You have bragged
about the numerous hits your blog gets.
He's commenting
on how people might be bemused by someone who continually seeds the
newsgroups with hit and run anonymous posts...extolling his own
opinions....which might lead people to check out your blog links to find out
more about you (as I did).

I was surprised to see you offer no clue as to who you are, where you've
worked, or anything else that would validate your opinions that you are
trying to force feed usenet. Is that a peersonal attack? No, it's an
honest observation.

Apparently, they are, including most of the other major
firms, including iBiquity investor JP Morgan.

Because your page came up when they googled it, and they simply clicked on
the link, doesn't mean they didn't immediately dismiss you, your opinions,
and your blog as some nutcake nonsense.
