Here's a link for you:

I suggest you scroll down where it says:

On 14 October 2005, the Minister for Communications, Information
Technology and the Arts announced a framework for the introduction of
digital radio in Australia.

The services are to be initially established in the six state capital
cities (Adelaide, Brisbane, Hobart, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney) by 1
January 2009.

All national (ABC/SBS), commercial and wide-area community
broadcasters in those cities will be able to broadcast their existing
analogue services in digital or broadcast new services if they wish.

Further consideration is also being given to the adoption of more
spectrum-efficient technology for digital radio to enable broadcasters
to provide even better sound quality and new services. This may mean,
however, that the current generation of digital radio receivers may
not be compatible with the standard that is finally adopted in
Australia.

Oh dear .. ignorance reigns supreme in the land of the flea ...

Australia has selected DAB+. It starts in capital cities in 2009. There is
also some consideration of DRM for regional areas, yet to be fully
considered. Nobody has even mentioned iBiquity's HD Radio which is a system
only adopted by the people who put Dubya in the white house and Arnie in the
mansion .. says it all really (and, sorry, Brazil, where the nuts come
from).

I know you want to be a smart ass, but you won't get the reaction you
desire so long as you're putting down digital radio in any of its
forms. You're preaching to the converted. However, you may have better
luck in other groups, if you try. Good luck!

To be honest I don't know much about Dubya. I know that until recently
he had a bitch by the name of John Howard, but that's about it really.

All forms od digital radio are just hype and a farce - DAB is a mess
in the UK, and has stalled in the US and Canada:

http://hdradiofarce.blogspot.com/

Telamon is your real name Kellie Pickler?

Go back and actually read the posts properly and maybe you'll understand, on
the other hand probably not.

My comments were directed at arrogant, ignorant people who think that the US
= the world and that HD Radio = digital radio. HD Radio does not and
probably will not ever exist in Australia, so nobody here has any interest
in it. On the other hand, Australia has been considering and testing DAB
(and now DAB+) for some time along with other possible systems like DRM. We
have also read with increasing degrees of amusement the pickle you guys in
the US have got yourselves into with HD Radio which is as good a reason as
any not to go down the same stupid path.

Now go back to your own little US newsgroups and discuss your silly little
digital radio system among yourselves and let the rest of the world
implement something better.

The problems are several.

1. These digital modes were designed from the onset for maximum profit
and an actual improvement in service and quality took a back seat.

2. These digital modes interfere with existing analog service and the
consortiums in question have not done enough to prevent annoying people
using existing radios.

3. There has not been any real driver to get people to adopt the new
digital modes such as different popular content or a mandate to cut off
analog service so people are forced to buy new radios.

So to sum up the new digital modes cost the listener money for nothing
so as a natural result most people don't spend their cash to buy new
radios that cost more than the radios they have now.
