Anyone here have HD radio, either in their car or home? What do you think of the sound quality, is it really that much better? Do you need a different kind of antenna to receive it than a standard antenna? How about your favorite station's sub-channels, are they worthwhile?

And the biggest question, is an HD radio worth the investment?

Thanks for the link senor_flojo, but it still doesn't tell me if those that have HD radio like it or not, which is way I ask here.

I don't have HD radio, but I can't stand to listen to FM radio so I can't imagine investing in equipment so I can hear a higher sound quality version of the same ad infested crap.
