I can't come up with as zippy a line as Rich.. . but those emitting HD2 
are now free of restrictions on content and commercials.

But fear not:
--------
ORLANDO -- September 3, 2008: Saying all its original goals have been 
achieved, the HD Digital Radio Alliance has lifted all restrictions on 
its members concerning programming and commercials on HD2 and HD3 
multicast stations. But, at the same time, the alliance said all member 
broadcasters have "pledged to preserve the local diversity and consumer 
choice of their HD2 content, as well as the clutter-free nature of the 
programming" through a set of voluntary guidelines.

And, a new head of the HD Alliance:

These two items should have receivers just sailing off the shelves, any 
day now.

Remember, these guys are doing their part, selling receivers for 1/2 off:

The Radiosophoy HD radio normally sells for $99.95, but they have a 
rebate program right now through the end of the month that offers a $50 
rebate.

HD has never looked so good! ;-)
