  True.  Still, stations tout the audio quality when talking up HD
radio even though an awful lot of their HD programming is talk stuff
where great sound is not an extraordinary prerequisite.

  My bet is that HD radio is not going to catch on to any great degree
and will fade as did stereo AM endeavors.  Indeed, if commercial radio
does not innovate more and stop the enormous homogenization that is
taking place, the whole industry could find itself in trouble.
