Not surprisingly, they are both a flop - the graphs are very similar.
The BBC used to check out my blog a lot, but they stopped a while
back. I bet half those clicks for "hd radio" are mine to make sure my
blog keeps sitting on Google's Homepage - LOL!

IBUZ is a failure. Turn it off.

Yes DAB is a big flop, and HD-Radio is even more of a flop, and yet a
certain SMS keeps singing about how successful it is. It amuses me that
somebody can describe something doing even worse than DAB as a great
success.

Actually it's interesting that the queries about DAB receivers are far
lower than queries just about DAB. It would seem that people want to
know what DAB is, but don't want to buy it.

I think that allowing the UK to name its streaming "HD radio" (notice
not "HD Radio") was as ploy to influence such tools as Google Trends.

Notice that SMS has not commented on this thread - he killfiles anyone
who is a threat to him.
