[cma-l] radio scrappage scheme

[Alan Coote]

This discussion reminds me of King Canute. 

 

It may be a marketing ploy, but at some point the majority of listening WILL
be digital, we better prepare for it.  We have NO viable means of going to
digital and we're not helped by DAB technology.

 

The ONLY likely solution for the next ten year to fifteen years is DRM+. We
should press government and Ofcom for this platform from 2015 as FM is
vacated.      

 

I've created a DRM FaceBook group.  If you want a digital future then please
join.

No not at all it is time that community radio starts to play on its
difference and value added as different from Commercial stations. Start to
be diverse my friends

A "radio amnesty" is being launched to encourage listeners to switch from
analogue to digital radios.

Participating UK retailers will offer discounts of 10%-20% when people trade
in their old analogue sets.
