"Straining to hear digital radio - Europe has a head start in
terrestrial digital radio, but is anybody listening?" "But today, digital radio is struggling to find its legs. While it's still in the cradle in the United States, it has begun to crawl, a bit, in Europe and elsewhere... Europe has had a standard for digital radio for some time. The European Union adopted the standard, called Eureka 147, 10 years ago. But high prices and a lack of consumer interest have kept the market tiny." http://tinyurl.com/6r77l9 "Finalist Fiascos: DAB, the digital radio" "The estimated investment on digital radio has been of 50 million euros in Spain, an amount that got to 350 million thanks to the help of the other six European countries that believed in this technology. In Catalonia the fiasco was accomplished in November 2008, when after ten years without an audience, the Corporació Catalana de Mitjans Audiovisuals -the Public Catalan Media Corporation- brought digital radio broadcasting to a halt." http://tinyurl.com/d7gpa5 "Germany flicks off-switch on DAB" "Part of the problem is that analogue FM never went away and most people didn't seem to care for the clear digital-quality sound, and were left nonplussed by such benefits as easy tuning and message displays with song names and titles. DAB is struggling almost everywhere in Europe." http://tinyurl.com/622fos "Macquarie Radio execs: delays have killed the future of digital radio" "Macquarie Radio Network says years of delays had killed the future of digital radio, which was being overtaken by broadband services, third- generation mobiles and digital devices such as iPods, reports Australian IT." http://tinyurl.com/34p4lz "Digital Radio in Canada" "The Commission is very concerned about the stalled DRB transition. Roughly 15 of the 76 authorized stations (including the digital-only operation in Toronto) are not on the air. Some stations that once operated have since ceased operations. Few recievers have been sold, and there is no interest in expanding DRB service beyond the six cities where it exists." http://tinyurl.com/cstact |
