Insignia Releases $50 HD Radio Portable Player

Yes, it's under $50, but it's just a radio tuner: This is laughable. In an era of $20 MP3 players, is there really a market for a $50 radio tuner, even if it pulls in HD Radio? The Best Buy exclusive Insignia NS-HD01 handles analog and digital FM with 10 presets. Honestly. No MP3 playback. No storage. No AM. No off-the-air recording. No tagging support for later retrieval. And at this price point, one wouldn't expect Wi-Fi and Internet radio tuning. Still!
