DOH ! - I B OC'D and Half Crocked Once Again You Got It Wrong !
In Fact the actual Title of the Article Reads :
iBiquity Signals The End of NAB's Satellite Radio Merger Opposition
http://www.hear2.com/2007/12/in-every-challe.html
The whole intent of this action by iBiquity is to 'gain'
"Leverage" with the Automakers to make IBOC "HD" AM&FM
Radios 'Standard' OEM Equipment on all new Cars and Trucks
sold in the USA. The Financial 'linkage between the US
Automakers and XM/SIRIUS Satellite Radio providers is a
natural Anti-Trust Monopoly situation for iBiquity to
Exploit. Once any Automaker makes XM/SIRIUS Satellite
Radios 'Standard' OEM Equipment on any new Cars and
Trucks sold in the USA : iBiquity Can Take Them To Court
-and- IMHO Win !
After All "Free" Over-the-Air AM&FM Radio In-Your-Car is
a 'basic' Human Right in the USA and Most-of-the-World.
