I am telling you the radio broadcast industry opinion, the opinion of the major broadcasters who invested in iBiquity, the NAB, the FCC and many others. All of us are concerned with the approaching obsolescence of AM... even investors, as each AM decline will force potential write-downs of the asset values of the goodwill of each AM.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You're a coward and a liar. |

You know Goddamn well this is bad news, because others surely will follow - there is NOTHING iNiquity can do to change the laws of physics - if ther ewas, something would have been done before Sept. 14th. Then the bad news is for AM... its obsolescence is now assured. I'll bet, if the night issue is either real or is not reparable, that a decent LA AM, for example, has probably lost $8 to $10 million in stick value because of the fact that there may be no future at all for them.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - If its obsolescence is assured, it's people like you who assured it.

HD was a hope that had a slim chance of reversing this. No, news/talk/sports on AM is alive and well - it is the music FMs that are screwed "News/Talk/Sports:Radio's Last Bastion" "Music FMs of any flavor are utterly screwed... Right now -- while FMs are losing the music audience to new media -- satellite radio is offering more News/Talk/Sports programming than we can fit on AM radio..." http://ftp.media.radcity.net/ZMST/daily/IS031005.htm "News/Talk/Sports Tops Radio Formats, Interep Analysis Reveals" "The latest share numbers place the News/Talk/Sports format at the top, pulling in an average of 17 percent of listenership among persons age 12-plus, based on Arbitron figures for total radio listening in 92 continuously measured metros. That share number is even higher than levels seen last spring, when the war in Iraq began. According to Interep, more stations than ever are programming News/Talk." So, music formats have 83% of the audience? That sounds like very few listen to news and talk. In the ages that advertisers want, news and talk have about 10% of the audience, and if you remove the FM news talk and sports stations, it is down to about 8.5% of the audience. That is miserable... and shows the only format viable on AM is slowly declining and rapidly moving from AM to FM.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You're a coward and a liar. |

"Because of lackluster performance, limited benefit, and reports of significant interference to other stations, please reinstitute daytime- only procedures for IBOC-AM...." You forgot something, dirtbag! No, nothing is forgotten. Without a technology advance, AM is on its way out. When AM listening is now below 10% in many smaller markets, and does not exceed 20% anywhere (SF, where the market definition is based on the coverage of three AMs), the issue is that any inability to get HD going, technically, via marketing, etc., has doomed the AM band in the US:- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You're a coward and a liar. |

I'll bet, if the night issue is either real or is not reparable, that a decent LA AM, for example, has probably lost $8 to $10 million in stick value because of the fact that there may be no future at all for them. I still maintain that all AM plants should be sold to local owners that actually WANT to do with the stations what is SUPPOSED to be done with them. Serve the public interest! I would personally love to be able to operate a station this way, with possibly a minimal profit, but in the public interest, as a public service. And not narrowcast to only certain demographics. Small town radio was done this way for many decades, and obviously was able to make a profit and stay on the air. The problem with radio in the US these days is it is done the same way the Koreans do small businesses: If one new business (say, a store selling cell phones) does well, then 10 or more duplicates show up (this happens often even in this small town). Of course, the town can't support that many cell phone stores, so most of them end up going out of business. US radio is doing precisely the same thing: a format does OK, so you have several stations in a market that pick up the same format. This makes none (or perhaps only one) really profitable. |
