[BC] IBOC

[Mike Gideon]

What lesson? Everbody is doing just fine without IBOC today. Small market 
radio has always been a different deal. They don't miss IBOC OR their own 
NFL team. HD is happening for some very good reasons, and like most things, 
will happen without everyone understanding why.
