"New Zune To Include HD Radio"

"Bob Struble, President/CEO of iBiquity Digital Corporation,
commented, We are very excited about the launch of HD Radio technology
on Microsoft’s Zune HD. We are planning with the HD Radio Alliance to
promote Zune HD to consumers."

MS only included HD Radio for the free publicity for its failed Zune
lines.

"DEAD AIR: Radio’s Great Leap Forward stalling in the Valley" December
5, 2007

"Nearly two years after the Valley’s four Clear Channel stations went
HD, several high-end car manufacturers have promised to offer HD
radios as an option on new models. But while Ford announced in
September that it offers the radios as dealer-installed upgrades — as
have Mini, Volvo, Jaguar and BMW — local Ford and Lincoln dealers had
not heard of HD and said they don’t offer the option."

"Are Ford and HD Radio in Sync?"

"The radio industry will, of course, promote Ford for free in exchange
for this development as part of the presumably soon-to-expire pledge
of airtime to the HD radio effort."

Ford used the HD Alliance, too, but didn't bother to install HD Radio,
because it is too costly and doesn't work - LOL!
