Enter the debate……

From daily Telegraph Thursday 8th April 2010

By Neil Midgley

The controversial Digital Economy Act, passed as one of the current government’s very last pieces of legislation in the “wash-up” process before Parliament is dissolved next week, enacts a legal framework to end FM, AM and Long Wave radio transmissions – despite huge practical objections and warnings that pressing ahead may result
Recent statistics show that the vast majority – 94 per cent – of radio listeners are satisfied with the service they currently receive and that less than a third of radios sold in the UK are digital.

The influential House of Lords Communication Committee, chaired by Lord Fowler, has also warned of the consequences of a digital switchover for the millions of perfectly functional analogue radio sets in Britain. Up to 100million existing sets will effectively become useless, while radios in 30million cars will also need to be converted – at a cost of upwards of £55 a time.

Switchover has also been the subject of fierce opposition from some radio campaigners, including 14 operators of local commercial radio stations who have today written to The Daily Telegraph saying that their ability to operate in the future is directly challenged by the digital radio switchover proposals in the Act.

These small stations – from West Berkshire to the Shetland Islands – said that they face being excluded from the new digital service and therefore starved of listeners and advertising.

The House of Commons Culture Media and Sport Committee this week warned of a “digital divide” in radio, with coverage patchy at best in rural and remote areas.

The organisation leading the proposed switchover, Digital Radio UK, says that the benefits of digital radio include a greater choice of services, improved sound quality and new functionality such as being able to pause, record and rewind radio broadcasts. Switchover will also lower costs for radio broadcasters, who currently have to pay to transmit their services twice – once on FM, and once on digital.

Digital Radio UK says that the new law provides a framework for digital radio coverage across the country to be improved, and for car manufacturers to start fitting digital radios as standard. Radio deserves a digital future and this legislation is the first key to unlocking that, said Ford Ennals, its chief executive.

The target date of 2015 for switchover to digital radio was described by culture secretary Ben Bradshaw in the House of Commons this week as an incentive not an ultimatum, with the precise date remaining to be set by the incoming government after the general election. The switchover date will not be set until more than 50 per cent of radio listening is via digital means, and national digital radio coverage reaches a comparable level to the current FM signal.
