Some radio stations are promoting HD Radio like it’s a new medium for radio, but it isn’t. HD radio allows AM and FM radio stations to switch to digital broadcasting from analog broadcasting. Basically HD radio upgrades terrestrial station‘s signals so that AM stations have a sound quality like FM stations and FM stations have a sound quality like a CD.

It is being compared to satellite radio where new programming and new opportunities for radio will occur, but that’s not what is happening. HD radio is more like HDTV which did not promote new programming; just clearer signals. Cable TV is what brought in new programming and content to television.

HD radio offers song title and artist information and tagging for later purchase on iTunes. While the sales of HD radios are increasing and more vehicle manufacturers are offering the radios as standard equipment in new cars, only 1.3 million total had been sold by Dec. ’09. Consumers can get HD radio when they download free station apps.

Currently there are no ratings available for HD stations and radio reps are using these stations as “add-ons.” Radio station ad sales have any pricing for HD radio. Instead, stations and their websites promote their latest iPhone apps or that they are streaming their content on their sites.

Radio stations need to change their focus from thinking of HD radio as a medium and realize it’s a technology. Like satellite TV added broadcast stations to its offerings, satellite radio should add the best radio stations to their roster and share revenue. Notice that Clear Channel’s KIIS Channel is an example of that which airs Ryan Seacrest’s show.

If terrestrial stations are viewing satellite radio as a threat, they need to put more effort into improving programming on current AM and FM stations, whether digital (HD) or analog.

I think in the next couple of years it will be hard to find an HD radio for sale. What are your thoughts on HD Radio?

Stretching Ad Dollars with DR Radio Lead Generation Campaigns

A unique nationwide turnkey ad program with a track record for matching qualified residential customers with the closest solar panel installers is being expanded. RadioActive Media would like to work with installers and manufacturers interested in the mass audience of radio to deliver significant response from homeowners.
