The concept of HDRadio launched by a coaliation of major broadcast radio networks recentlys is indeed innovative. The network. will collaborate closely as they divide up programming formats.

Radio is in the midst of technology transformation--similar to what's happening in the television industry with HDTV--as they begin to broadcast in a new format called HD Radio. The new, high-definition format allows static-free signals on both AM and FM bands, and also allows multiple audio streams to fit into the same slice of airwave spectrum used for a single station today.

Nearly 600 radio stations around the country have already begun broadcasting in HD Radio. Consumers are aware of the changes that the format is expected to bring. Unfortunately the production of HD-capable radios has lagged behind and only a few will be on the market during the holiday shopping season. The new digital format is the answer to satellite radio's growing popularity, and may lure consumers away from portable music devices such as Apple Computer's iPod. HD Radio sharply improves sound quality and enables expansion of programming with extra channels or streams of data such as traffic and weather information

Even in the USA where it has recently come up it is more or less in its early stages. The technology has not cross over even to Europe in a big way and across the Pacific it is yet to step in.
