Is HD an appropriate term to use in reference to sound?

Asked by jaketheripper (2779points) September 15th, 2009

Whenever my friend and I would speak of hd radio, he would say that it is high fidelity not high definition. He said that the radio companies just used “high def” because consumers already understood the term, but that it wasn’t really appropriate. Is this true?
