What HD-2s Don’t Stream And Should?
A rant about streaming. But included in this is interesting: WRXK’s HD2 channel (a new one only for HD radios) is entirely themed around their breakfast presenter. Neat idea.

Interactivity: A lost opportunity for your station?
Some ‘isn’t the US behind us all’ type thoughts from Mark Ramsey; but some useful and interesting figures he quotes.

Tin-Pan Dead End Alley
Adam makes a splendid (and short) point.

The trouble with trust
A rather cogent and interesting speech from BBC DG Mark Thompson; not self-flagellating, but rather, opening issues wider than just “trust in the media”. An interesting read.

“In the UK at least, the hard times for digital are now. There needs to be a wholesale change in the infrastructure cost of digital to ensure its short-term survival and to put it on a sensible economic footing for the future.” Crikey.
