HD sound quality

76.195.4.225

At best, can HD radio achieve near-CD quality? Is the compression scheme different than MP3 or iTunes as to make kbps comparisons difficult?

Secondly, can stations decide what sampling quality each multicast program is in? Or when there are two multicast programs do they both have to be the same quality?
