Mine's $34 a month for 2 GB of bandwidth, and as yet I've not used even 25%
of that, even with streaming audio. Since it's cell based, it works
anywhere in the country with very few drops, and those only when we're in a
moving vehicle at 130 KpH. It's a lot more reliable than our hardwire
internet connections..

So, you're gonna listen to your cell phone in the car?

What about when you go thru areas with no cell-phone reception?

I pay one third of that. In any event, I have it for other reasons.
Streaming audio is just a side benefit, so for me (and many others) it
is effectively free. It sounds better. There is a vastly better
selection of programming. Why would I care about HD?

Convenience.

HD is just another option/choice.

Choices are a good thing.

Not when they cause interference on the band and harm reception on other
stations.

I suggest you get up to speed on some of the tests that have been done
and are currently in progress.

I am more up-to date than you could imagine.

There has been no widespread interference complaints from the public...and
virtually all stations are protected within their contours.

Reminds me of the engineers who didn't want to turn on the stereo
pilot...because they were afraid to give up any coverage area.
