[BC] FM Modulators for Satellite Radio

Speaking of connectors, I'm rather disappointed that iBiquity hasn't
required all HD receiver manufacturers to include an output port for
the "raw" data stream, which would allow adapters to be interfaced as
new applications( such as enchanced PAD, traffic reports, etc.) are
developed in the future.   Many of the '70s vintage analog tuners at
least offered a wideband composite output in case "quad" adapters were
someday developed -- now we supposedly have a system that gives
broadcasters a new "data broadcasting" revenue stream, but I guess
users will need to throw away their existing receivers each time a new
idea comes along.

I'm not positive, but i heard the RIAA might have had something to do with 
this. they're afraid some programmer could post a decoder/recorder to the 
web and allow digital quality mp3's to be recorded. they are presently 
throwing a fit over XM/Sirius satellite recorders.

Thank You,
