I'm with you John....

I've been waiting for a chance to get back into CDRD, and I found it Friday. It is a great story: The first major change in radio's business model since radio's invention. TV Cable subscription did wonders for the entertainment world.

What financial trickery are people talking about? CDRD has a lot of cash and devoted institutional ivnestors. Just one example, please...

A comparison to LOR? LOR is in the rocket business, CDRD is in the satellite entertainment business. I see no reason why CDRD performance should track LOR (Aside: Chairman of LOR may have been selling our secrets to the Red Chinese, another reason for LOR to be held with contempt).

Widows and orphans? A phony, straw man argument. We all know this is an untested concept and very risky. I see no evidence that CDRD ever touted this as a safe investment.

Anway, we may end up losing money on CDRD, but that will be determined in the marketplace.

Any thoughts on why delays in shipments of Lucent parts to CDRD? Is LU overwhelemd with orders, or is CDRD weclhing on payments? The press releases have been vague.
