Comparing HD and Satellite - Final Grade


Satellite Radio or HD? Both have bellowed themselves silly. Yet nobody has placed them side by side for comparison, because it's much harder to do than it sounds.

No one person holds enough knowledge to make an evaluation across all industry disciplines. But we have worked together to get a general consensus, assigning a grade to each as it applies to these digital radio offerings.

"Audio Graphics readers have spoken. Now, executives from HD and Satellite radio should contemplate the results." You've had a chance to grade HD Radio and Satellite Radio in the following categories:
