[BC] HD's friends: Radio World and NPR Affiliates

When will Radio World start to reflect some of these same 
negative observations in their articles.

To me, Radio World is part of the problem.  They won't 
headline the negatives, as Rich and others do here.

And, will the NPR affiliates (who got Ray croc estate money 
to pay for their IBOC) ever conclude that there aren't 
enough receivers in the marketplace to shut their IBOC 
signals off.  I fear not.

What is their incentive for shutting off IBOC transmissions. 
  The IBOC license is a one-time life time to noncoms, as I 
understand it, so once built, why wouldn't they continue to 
spend a little extra on IBOC ERP power, and a couple of 
extra audio streams for niche audio.
