"The Problem Isn't Demand, It's Bandwidth"

"Should we all be concerned that the days of the 1,000-foot tower are
gone and that anyone with a computer and an Internet connection is a
possible new competitor? Will radio as we know it become just another
feature of cell phones? Will in-car Internet give commuters millions
of station choices? The answer is no. The problem for such platforms
isn't consumer demand. It's bandwidth. In short, the greatest appeal
of Internet radio remains its most fundamental problem: the
requirement that every user have a separate, custom-per-user data
stream. As long as this requirement remains, over-the-air radio need
not be concerned about meaningful encroachment from the Internet."

BUT:

"Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service"

"Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) is a broadcasting
service that can be offered via existing GSM and UMTS cellular
networks... MBMS uses multicast distribution in the core network
instead of point-to-point links for each end device. MBMS will start
to be rolled out in cellular networks during 2008 and gives the
opportunity to broadcast TV, film, information such as free overnight
transmissions of Newspapers in a digital form and other media in these
networks. MBMS has the major benefits that the network infrastructure
is already there for mobile network operators and the deployment can
be cost effective compared with building a new network for the
services. The broadcast capability enables to reach unlimited number
of users with constant network load. Further it also enables the
possibility to broadcast information simultaneously to many cellular
subscribers for example emergency alerts... Cellular TV Broadcasting
and MS will give the cellular service providers a very considerable
return on their investment in 3G licences and will bring forward the
launch of 4G."
