If you are labouring under the misapprehension that "the radio
industry" is one body with one opinion, you are sadly mistaken.


I've already said elsewhere that if you want to be more precise about it
then I'd say it's the "consensus view of the bigger commercial radio
groups and the BBC".


I have had to respond to many Ofcom consultations and studied all of
the other replies in great detail. One overwhelming conclusion I have
come to is that every respondent came at the questions from an
entirely different direction.


I wouldn't disagree with you, although all of the bigger commercial radio
groups and the BBC do now seem to have agreed on the fact that they're
going to push DAB and only DAB.


I heard it said a while back that no DAB radio sold to date would have made
a profit if the real costs of the endless advertising were taken out?

Don't know if that is actually true, but I'm sure some *blow off* will be
along shortly to put us all right...???
