Digital radio across the world

Per G Borga, Teracom Group

17th March 2013

Terrestrial broadcasting offers advantages

• Robust and reliable• A true mass market delivery system

• Everyone, everywhere: also cross borders

• No need for costly subscriptions

• Your integrity is safe

• Difficult for radio to innovate

• No significant growth • Younger audiences are listening less

• Interference and bad reception

But - FM spectrum is full

• More choice • More cost efficient• Greener • New features: text, images, interactivity

• Better reception

Digital radio offers the solution

Page 19: Digital radio   full session

IP is a complement but no substitution

• Not a sustainable business case to substitute terrestrial with IP on nationwide scales

• Who will pay for the data? • What about scenarios and listeners that cannot be reached behind a SIM card?

• Bottomline: It is a question of democracy
