which is an absolute gem.
I was involved with the four-channel FM fiasco. One noon hour a
bunch of us design guys and guys from GE were having lunch. One of
the GE guys (Tony) said that back in the two-channel stereo days they
were initially going to license the manufacture of stereo generators
but before that got off the ground they realized that a dime per
receiver would be far more lucrative. But it seems Ibiquity wants to
get money from both transmitter and receiver manufacturers.
Greed. Pure greed.
