Not sure if I am previous in mentioning this. But IIUC the BBC
are now announcing that they plan to make the XHQ 320kb/s stream
permanently available as 'HD Radio' for Radio 3 listeners to the
iPlayer.



In this context, what does 'HD' stand for?


I think the BBC are going to call the new 320k stream(s) "HD Radio"


Correction: I just listened again to what was said on the 'PM' prog (last
part of the programme on Monday R4). The term being used is "HD Sound" not
"HD Radio".

Slainte,

Jim
