From Today's Inside Radio http://www.insideradio.com:


Summer book Persons Using Radio (PUR) numbers declined to their lowest level
since Arbitron began keeping statistics in Fall 1998. Radio usage dropped in
every cell except 50-54s. Steepest declines continue to be among teenagers
and young adults, as their attention is increasingly diverted to other
media. That's especially true among males, with Men 18-24 and 18-34 cells
posting the biggest year-over-year declines. But the crowded media world is
also taking a toll on the 25-54 money demo, which fell 15.1-14.9. There's
also a disturbing trend among female demos. In the Summer book not a single
female cell saw an increase in listening. All but two (50-54 and 65+)
declined. Compare that to male demos. While older women mirror the trend of
listening less, the Summer book shows Men 45-64 were listening to the radio
more.


As I wrote yesterday http://www.hear2.com/2007/11/radios-perfect-.html:
Listener who grow up with access to digital media are forever changed. They
will not "grow into" us - we must "grow into" them.
Or else the radio will eventually become your father's Oldsmobile.

Recorded music sales hit the skids
Estimates eMarketer


http://www.emarketer.com/Article.aspx?id=1005605&src=article1_newsltr:
Worldwide spending on recorded music will actually decline-falling from
$31.8 billion in 2006 to $26.2 billion in 2011.
That's not just CD's, that's ALL recorded music, including digital music.
And that's despite lots of new digital ways and forms to buy music. No doubt
because of the new ways and forms to steal it.


"They will not "grow into" us - we must "grow into" them."


It's too late - Internet Radio (i.e., personalized music services,
such as Pandora, Last.fm, and Slacker) will kill the music-oriented
FMs. Pandora is on Sprint phones, has just teamed with AT&T, and is
available to be streamed via Ford's/Microsoft' Sync (and soon to be
licensed to GM, Toyata, and Honda) BTW - I keep seeing more-and-more
TV commercials for Ford's Sync, BUT NONE FOR DEALER-INSTALLED HD
RADIO! Sync is optional and is also a STANDARD feature in Ford's top-
trim models, which constitute 40% of its sales. HD Radio is DOA!


There's no way to ''stream'' to an automobile, other than an expensive
cellular link. This approach doesn't work on the open road, as the data
cloud is not ubiquitous.- Hide quoted text -

"MyFM comes to a Sprint phone near you"

"Personalized radio. Available now from Sprint and Pandora.com. All
for a mere 3 bucks a month if you have the right phone plan. Let's
pretend your station was available on a mobile phone tomorrow. Besides
the fact that it's (presently) free, what would be your competitive
advantage over a service that's personalized? In other words, as a
consumer, which do you prefer: "One size fits all" or "my size fits
me"? There is an answer to this question, of course, and regular
readers of this blog know what it is.Hint: It's not about trimming
staff, multiplying options, and reducing clutter."

http://www.hear2.com/2007/05/myfm_comes_to_a.html

Oh my, an additional whopping $3/month on top of existing cell phone
service!

"Ford SYNC, HD Radio and the state of competition"

"Now here's the killer: Ford is making SYNC available as a factory-
installed option for just over $300. And for the top-end trim levels,
like the Focus SES, it'll be a standard feature. That's right...
standard. So if you have an iPod, or Zune (ha!), you can now control
it easily while you drive. If you have a cellphone that supports a
service like mSpot, or a phone that supports Pandora, you can now
listen to them in your car... easily. And this will have a ripple-
effect throughout all the other auto manufacturers as the platform is
licensed to GM, Honda and Toyota (this is Microsoft we're talking
about)..."

http://www.orbitcast.com/archives/fo...mpetition.html

"Radio: Internet Radio or HD Radio. You choose!"

"Here's the choice - supplementary channels of varied audio quality
from the same radio chains that deliver today's unimaginative
terrestrial radio formats or worldwide radio of every imaginable
format and style where the passion is in the performance?... And, most
of all, who'll apologize for the time and money spent, the years the
radio industry bought into it, and the deceitfulness suffered because
of Ibiquity and the HD Radio Alliance's misguidance."

From Today's Inside Radio http://www.insideradio.com:


Summer book Persons Using Radio (PUR) numbers declined to their lowest level
since Arbitron began keeping statistics in Fall 1998. Radio usage dropped in
every cell except 50-54s. Steepest declines continue to be among teenagers
and young adults, as their attention is increasingly diverted to other
media. That's especially true among males, with Men 18-24 and 18-34 cells
posting the biggest year-over-year declines. But the crowded media world is
also taking a toll on the 25-54 money demo, which fell 15.1-14.9. There's
also a disturbing trend among female demos. In the Summer book not a single
female cell saw an increase in listening. All but two (50-54 and 65+)
declined. Compare that to male demos. While older women mirror the trend of
listening less, the Summer book shows Men 45-64 were listening to the radio
more.


As I wrote yesterday http://www.hear2.com/2007/11/radios-perfect-.html:
Listener who grow up with access to digital media are forever changed. They
will not "grow into" us - we must "grow into" them.
Or else the radio will eventually become your father's Oldsmobile.

Recorded music sales hit the skids
Estimates eMarketer


http://www.emarketer.com/Article.aspx?id=1005605&src=article1_newsltr:
Worldwide spending on recorded music will actually decline-falling from
$31.8 billion in 2006 to $26.2 billion in 2011.
That's not just CD's, that's ALL recorded music, including digital music.
And that's despite lots of new digital ways and forms to buy music. No doubt
because of the new ways and forms to steal it.

"Night of the Bees"

"Radio listeners across America are trying to hide from a monster, but
there is no shelter. After spending its adolescence in technical
trials during daytime hours, IBOC has now come out at night... For
example, in New York City, WOR broadcasts on 710 kilohertz. When it
turns on its IBOC equipment, the digital noise it produces can be
heard on 690, 700, 720 and 730 kilohertz with a reduced fidelity
analog audio signal remaining on 710..."

1) It's a solution in search of a problem.

2) It creates far more problems than it could possibly solve (interference
to existing services, etc.)

3) It's a boondoggle of massive proportions that the government and the
industry are trying to foist onto a disinterested public
