Yes, without co-ordination there may be interefernce problems during

the
transmition period, but the sooner the world goes DRM the better
international radio broadcastings prospects IMHO.


Satellite radio does every thing DRM promises.


... if you're in the US, which doesn't include 95% of the world.



The rest of the world has their own satellite radio service(s). The name
escapes me at the moment, but there is one service that covers most of the
(non-US) world in several regions.


Worldspace, quite a proportion of its output now seems to be encrypted and aimed
at Western travellers.

I reiterate however, that people in third world and oppressive countries
will not have access/not be able to afford the receivers for either this or
DRM.


Of course that reasoning also renders Worldspace redundant.
