Commercial radio reaches 12.4 million weekly listeners in Australia
A new year is an opportunity to look forward but not lose sight of our heritage. In this edition, we embrace the benefits of digital technology but keep a firm foot on the foundations of audio broadcasting.
In the cover story, RÚV’s Einar Logi Vignisson explains how Iceland’s public broadcaster uses digital technologies to maintain strong ad revenues. We hear how community stations benefit from digital technologies and how the compaction digitalization offers has revolutionized mobile news reporting.
Audio broadcasting has responsibilities, too. Graham Dixon suggests radio’s primary task for the new year. We preview World Radio Day, which is fittingly focused on climate change, and we champion a call for a concerted drive to develop children’s radio.
Our tech focus combines exciting new studio tech with cutting-edge tools for live broadcasting. We also visit some striking studio refits and hear from a team of academics researching audio broadcasting’s errant but formative offspring: pirate radio.
2025 looks set to be eventful. Let’s embrace what digitalization brings but not lose sight of what audio broadcasting should be.
