I don't know what all the fuss is about the Zune coming out with an HD Radio in it. Who the %@#@ ia going to buy an MP3 player to hold the songs and videos they like yet want to listen to these radio stations to hear clusters of commercials, voice tracked programs, and the same 500 songs over and over?

That is if the Zune were to capture any serious numbers in the marketplace after all this time.

Wasn't HD Radio supposed to be more "original" programming? Goes to show you how radio management continues to operate.


:
: Yes, WSCR is on 104.3 HD2. CBS is making a push to make sure its AM radio stations appear on an HD2 in most of their markets. They are concerened becuase new receivers such as the soon to be released Zune HD will not pick up any AM stations but WILL receive all HD channels.
: The question is whether the Zune will be able to actually receive HD signals any better than the currently available radios AND without an external antenna. I don't see how this could be possible.
