"If HD Radio Charges Consumers, Will It Be Considered Competition For
Satellite Radio?"

http://satellitestandard.blogspot.co...io-charges-con...

Notable quote:

"It is pretty much confirmed that HD Radio is going to charge
consumers for content. At what point is the FCC going to consider this
service competition for satellite radio? Ironically, free HD is not
considered competition, but paid service would be!"

It is not confirmed. In fact, no broadcaster I know has any intention of
doing this, as there is no model for charging for single channels or 3 to 4
unrealted channels when XM and Sirius have around 150 each.



Yup, it's a given - looks like the HD Radio Alliance has finally
realized that HD Radio is not going to be terrestrial radio's great
savior, so they have now taken a backseat to Satellite Radio,
forever. *Great news !

There is no news of this whatsoever.

Yea, your are rigtht and RWOnline is wrong:

"Is Pay-for-Play HD Content on Horizon?"

"For more than a year, Ibiquity officials have been working with NDS,
a technology contractor, to develop a conditional access feature for
HD Radio. With field testing underway at a Florida public station,
some proponents hope conditional access is the next big feature for HD
Radio and think receivers that can handle the capability may be
available by the end of the year. Much must happen to make that a
reality."

It won't be up to individual broadcasters. As I said, HD Radio is
failing and this is the only way to attempt to recoup the huge losses,
due to the failed $500,000,000 HD Radio Alliance ad campaign. As
Ramsey said, "it will be a long, slow race to the bottom":

"Sirius, XM, and HD: Consumer interest reality check"

"While interest in satellite radio is diminishing, interest in HD
shows no signs of a pulse."
