credit: http://www.radiomed.net DAB DIGITAL RADIO: No more birds on DAB Radio! Posted by: admin on Thursday, June 09, 2005 - 12:08 AM The birdsong temporarily broadcast on the national commercial digital radio network as D1_temp, will cease today (9th June) to make way for the BT Livetime pilot launching later this month. This was always a temporary service. The capacity it occupied is now contracted to BT Livetime, who will ultimately be launching a broadcast entertainment service, delivering TV and entertainment content to enabled mobile devices. This June sees the start of a four month pilot by BT Livetime and Virgin Mobile with 1,000 pre-selected users in southeast England within the M25. They will trial the live television content on mobile phones. To allow the pilot to go ahead, the D1_temp service (and some other temporary test data services) ceased broadcasting at 6am on 9th June. |
