Just time for a quick post. As predicted earlier this year, France has announced today that they have chosen a combination of non-standard “T-DMB Audio” and DRM for their terrestrial digital radio solution.
The decision was made in the face of quite a degree of unified international concern, and only time will tell whether it’s a visionary choice which will catapult French digital radio ahead of those using DAB/DAB+, or one man’s folly which will hinder the digitisation of radio in one of Europe’s largest countries.
