New Devices Bring HD Radio To iTunes

Two new electronics devices -Polk Audio's I -Sonic Entertainment System 2 and JBL's iHD -allow HD radio listeners to "tag" songs they like and then purchase and download those songs via Apple's iTunes music store. Both are compact desktop systems that feature HD radio and an iPod dock with iTunes tagging technology. Here's how it works: The iTunes Tag button on each device allows consumers to mark songs aired by HD stations that encode their broadcasts for the tagging feature. Each device then stores information about the tagged songs to its memory and transfers the tags to an iPod when docked. When the consumer connects the iPod to his or her computer, iTunes automatically presents the songs in a new playlist to preview, buy and download. iBiquity Digital CEO Bob Struble says, "Research consistently shows that radio is the predominant source of music discovery. Now, with iTunes tagging, HD radio technology provides a cool new way to capture the songs listeners discover." HD Digital Radio Alliance CEO Peter Ferrara adds that his group "will broadly promote iTunes tagging. We plan a multimillion- dollar advertising campaign." Meanwhile, Clear Channel Radio revealed it will offer encoded HD radio broadcasts for devices supporting Apple's implementation of the HD radio tagging feature. The company also said it is urging all radio broadcasters to fully support the new capability. Polk Audio's I -Sonic Entertainment System 2 -Susan Visakowitz

"No one boomers as the largest and most willing to spend straightforward hypothesis that broadcasters are not brought up radio. They'd say, 'I think there's a money? The consensus among programmers seemed to be that radio is pandering to the sales side, with salespeople either ignoring the demo or frequently complaining that they can't get their jobs done with a 12 -24-targeted station. "Stations have flipped even if they're successful there and decreased shares to help raise sales," Ferro said. "One of the biggest battles I fought with [Latin rhythm] KXOL [Los Angeles] management was when they said we need to get the 30+ audience. I replied, `And piss off the 12-24 audience that's giving you 30 shares ?' It's all about giving them relevant content." Content is king-have we heard that enough? Steal stressed that it's important to build a community around stations, with talent at their core: "It's brand strength and it revolves around personalities.Without that, all this migrating online and texting-if there's no brand-it doesn't matter." Pilat offered that it's important to use station staff to tap into the audience's passion points. "You're talking about the YouTube and reality TV generation," she said. "They love variety and knowing every detail." Noting that not every station has the capabilities of one that's in, say, the No. 2 market in the nation, Pilat again advocated harnessing the power-and willingness -of a station's young staff and gaggle of interns to help keep radio tapped in. "Kids in Des Moines are posting stuff on MySpace and YouTube," she said. "I tell our staff that they work at a radio station, but they're also at a magazine and a TV station: Anything they want to do, they can put online." Pilat added that one of the most obvious ways to extend the brand is to move it to the Internet. "Everyone's streaming online; no one has a stereo. People are walking around with iPhones. How long until people listen to radio on their phones? I want to develop the brand so people go to kiisfm.com when they want entertainment and music." RdR

It should come as no surprise that today's youth are not developing the rabid radio consumption habits that marked previous generations. After all, terrestrial broadcasters have done seemingly little to court kids, amid a spiraling number of choices for music and entertainment. So what can be done 14 to reel them back in? As part of the R&R round table "Keeping Radio Relevant for Tomorrow's Listeners," held Aug. 17 in Los Angeles, a crack team of invited programmers and consultants came up with some suggestions on how to battle the doomsayers and bring kids back to radio.
