    What strikes me is the dab decision here needs to be revisited.

    Why? They are launching in the UK, not Ireland. :confused:

    Think he is making the point that the UK are progressing with DAB while we have dropped it. Hopefully Bauer will have an interest in devoloping it here!

    One broadcaster abandoning DAB doesn't mean the format is dead. I would love to see Bauer develop it.

    My point is that they seem to be getting more choice using Dab.

    Times Radio, LBC etc
    80s, 90s music etc
    Gold Radio


    Hopefully, Bauer will do something here.

    Seriously...

    DAB was a good technology but we are far too late for this dance

    There is multiple ways to get a far larger choice of stations via the internet whether you are at home or on the move

    RIP DAB - could’ve been great

    Brendan O' Connor was slagging off GB Radio, and fact that that Arlene Foster has joined it. I cannot find the BOC thread here btw.



    Pot & Kettle pretty much, there, from ye Bredan.

    No matter how shyte GB News is (matter of opinion of course) the fact is that having a clear right wing alternative completely makes apparent the left wing msm. Certainly left wing in terms of social issues. It just becomes more obvious to people who aren't particularly interested in such things. BoC would prefer if his left wing tendencies were just considered the norm rather than having any political slant at all, but as I say the mere existence of GB News no matter how bad or good it is exposes his and his employers political leaning. That is what has them concerned and that is why they are bothered to bad mouth it. You'd think they'd just ignore it instead of giving it any kind of publicity but no they are going on the attack.

    Did he slag it off or did he just say that it was exactly “mainstream media”?
