Haven't checked much, but other automakers seem liable, too. Here's
hype from Volvo:

Seems Rolls, Volvo, Audi (not yet installed), Scion, etc are liable,
too. I'll have to email these attorneys with an updated list, but they
are probably already checking. I posted links to these attorneys in
most of the automaker forums that had complaints about HD Radio!

THIS IS GREAT!!! LMFAO!!!



As much as I appreciate your glee, and the ultimate market
recognition that this noise isn't working, do keep in mind the
enormous investment represented here. Not only in hardware, and R&D,
but in pocketing FCC commissioners who signed on to this crap above
public objections.

A court case will likely be what it takes to finally begin
dismantling IBOC, but iBiquity will not go down easy. And HD will
not disappear overnight.

In other words, don't do a victory lap, yet. This is only a first
of many, many steps.

Volvo, that Swedish name means, I Roll.
Ball bearings, and probally also tapered bearings.In World War Two,
U.S.Army Air Force lost over four hundred and fifty American Soldiers
bombing a ball bearings factory in Schweinfurt,Germany and another
smaller ball bearings factory in Germany.Neutral Sweden took up the
slack, supplying bearings to the Nazis.
Volvo,,, Sweden,,, HUMPH!
Neutral Switzerland was working both sides of the coin, building and
repairing equipment for both, the Allies and the Axis powers.
SCREW Volvo!!! Sue the HELL out of Volvo!!!

You still don't get it. The fat cats sell goodies to BOTH SIDES during
wars. They win, everyone else loses. Yet you cheerlead for these
*******s because they hire a few hundred of your neighbors, (while
destabilizng the whole planet). Haley Barbour is evil. General Dynamics
and Lockheed are evil.

This is absolutely true. The "slow death" has already begun. Equipment
manufacturers have noticed the precipitous drop in orders for IBOC gear
by radio stations. Retail stores never have (and still do not) sell
anything that remotely resembles an "HD Radio" selection of product for
consumers. The lobbying effort to have the FCC coerce the manufacturers
of unrelated equipment (e.g. cell phones) to include "HD Radio" in their
products will ultimately fail. It is, after all, a marketplace issue. If
there's no market, what's the point? You don't dictate to consumers what
they will buy and like, although that fine point seems to have been lost
on The Alliance.

Significantly, even the industry trades are getting bored with the
topic. Even if something is exciting and successful, after awhile there
is only so much that can be said. When it is a flat-out dud, only
constant lobbying by those with vested interests can keep the tongues
wagging, and that is pretty well running out at this point.

In other words, don't do a victory lap, yet. This is only a first
of many, many steps.

Indeed. Some time in the future however, someone will say, "Oh, by the
way, whatever became of 'HD Radio'?"

That's when you will see the IBOC gear over at Weirdstuff Warehouse
along with the Cartrivision and DiVX players.
