As for the audio aspect: While some engineers may introduce more intermodulation distortion into a recording, I doubt this is intentional. Additional harmonic distortion is what will add to the "pleasantness" of a sound. Usually, IM distortion is regarded as a loss of clarity and depth, something that isn't desirable in a recording.

[edit] Not just radio
Can't "intermodulation" apply to other things such as audio? Also it can be a signal in a piece of electronics, such as intermodulation distortion in an amplifier (or electromechanical IMD in a loudspeaker), not just broadcasted radio. I think it needs some work to broaden the article. --Howdybob 13:18, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Agreed
It does apply and I've added a bit of what I know on the subject under the "Intermodulation Distortion" header.

Thanks. I wrote that comment in part because this article mentioned "radio signals" which I later changed to just "signals." I'm wondering about the new material though, which I'll discuss at Talk:Intermodulation distortion. --Howdybob 21:53, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] IMD in music? Really?
Is it really IMD per se that is used in music and so forth, rather than just harmonic distortion in general? --Howdybob 02:30, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
