Here is another HD radio viewpoint.

In the UK they have DAB, not HD radio. Very different, not on the same frequencies, and the radios are a lot less expensive than the HD radios here are... that's why I think DAB is much more successful in Europe than HD will ever be here.
(Kenwood's much talked about HD radio for cars lists around $1000 once you get all the parts you need. $400 for just the HD module! What's the point in making that 4x more expensive than a satellite tuner!?!?!?
