[BC] NO HD RADIO FOR CHRISTMAS -- Why not let it die?

[Lewis Munn]

Ernie,
   
  Rather than push into the new technology that seems to have major problems, why not let HD die a quiet death, and push for open competition again, so the systems other countries find better, and some of the US-designed ideas that never were tried, have a chance to make it in the marketplace?
   
  I really see little benefit for the stations I have worked for...small town facilities... for the HD radio to be pushed on them, probably bankrupting them, and lose the local radio ideas.
   
  IF it has to be pushed and hyped and shoved legally down our throats, regardless of the cost in driving small markets out of business, maybe it is NOT the best way to go??  Maybe consumers do not want to have to buy expensive new radios, and will just go to i-PODs?
