Default Petition to stop FM being switched off

Although I feel most of the report including this proposal comes from cloud
cuckoo land, I've signed anyway as there are a lot of stupid people about
and the colour of the Government is almost certain to alter next year.

I simply cannot imagine the commercial interests wanting to lose the fm
outlets at the moment with such a muddled and maybe if idea of what is to
be in its place. I know a lot of people still listen to AM due to poor
reception of both dab and fm in cars and for news and sport who needs
either?

Horses for courses. I mean who will the government sell such relatively
small frequency ranges to for goodness sake?

"It is the sheer volume of online audio content available via
internet-connected devices which terrifies the UK radio industry. I
believe that broadband-delivered radio will explode in the years to
come, offering very local, unregulated content, as well as opening a
window to the radio stations of the world." - from the Myers Report
