Default What is "Xohm"? - terrestrial radio is screwed!

"What is "Xohm"?"

"According to Ars Technica, the Xohm network is slated for a full
launch in Chicago, Baltimore and Washington D.C. by March or April
2008. Sprint plans to follow the launch with a nationwide rollout, and
should reach all major markets in the U.S. by the end of 2008. Repeat

"The end of Talk Radio?"

"Any rational view of radio's future - and I'm talking 5+ years out
here - will conclude that Talk Radio will be a more important piece of
the pie than Music Radio. That's because of the infinitely expanding
choices for passive audio entertainment which are just over the
horizon mixed with the growing demand from listeners to experience
music audio with customization and control."

Comment:"'Speech' radio as we call it in the UK is hugely popular,
with the national FM speech station Radio 4 getting a 19% reach and a
11% share of UK listening. Having £71m (around $130m) a year to spend
on programming certainly helps. But if you're interested in speech
ideas, that's the station to look to."
