[HCDX] Helping radio get a new reception in India

2009-04-09 Thread sakthi vel

TROY — Radio in India was famously dreary. Stations were owned by the 
government, and they were largely ignored. No longer. The nation deregulated 
the industry in 2000, spawning a widely popular medium that now includes 259 
private stations, including 32 in the Radio Mirchi network.

Amba Preetham Parigi helped build Radio Mirchi, which today reaches at least 
200 million listeners. It's the effort that earned him the 2009 Entrepreneur of 
the Year Award from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, given to a businessperson 
who succeeds with a high-tech venture.

Wait a minute. Radio is high-tech? Is this the 1950s?

"It is low technology in our context," said David Gautschi, dean of RPI's Lally 
School of Technology and Management, which sponsors the award. "But in terms of 
rural India, it's high technology."

Parigi never owned Radio Mirchi. The stations, which mostly play music from 
India's film industry, are operated by his employer — The Times Group, a 
massive media conglomerate whose holdings include India's largest newspaper, 
along with magazines, television stations and more.

Parigi didn't scratch together a business in his parents' garage or launch a 
low-cost Web site from a trendy loft.

But Gautschi said Parigi's version of business building — "entrepreneurship 
within a going concern" — is far more prevalent than the stereotype. And it's 
worthy of an award, he said, noting that Parigi built the hip radio network 
within what was seen as a stodgy print media company.

The award, which culminates with a celebration this afternoon on RPI's Troy 
campus, brought Parigi to the Capital Region for a whirlwind tour of 
appearances and lectures.. On Tuesday morning, for example, an interview with 
public radio network WAMC (expected to air Thursday) was quickly followed by a 
visit to Tech Valley High School at Rensselaer Technology Park in North 
Greenbush.

The appearances have revealed Parigi, 59, as a natural teacher and speaker. 
He's quick with a memorable phrase, and he has strong opinions.

His take, for example, on the Capital Region, which he visits about once a 
year: "Where in the world do you have a Boston, a Montreal and a New York? How 
many towns or regions have this kind of connectivity?"

On restlessness with President Barack Obama's attempts to revive the economy: 
"You took 10 years to get into this place. Now you want him to pull you out in 
10 months? … Societies and civilizations have been built on patience, not 
impatience."

Parigi isn't a stranger to RPI or the Lally School. He has a brother-in-law in 
Niskayuna and a chance campus visit several years ago led to a meeting with 
campus officials that became a lasting relationship.

Gautschi, the dean, said that relationship has shown Parigi to be a thoughtful 
and creative leader, with a kind heart. "He is terrifically empathetic and 
humane," Gautschi said. That empathy was on display during the Tech Valley High 
visit, as was Parigi's desire to inspire. He told the students of his personal 
"secrets to life" and stressed that the key to happiness is not material 
things, but internal satisfaction.

In an interview, Parigi repeated Mahatma Gandhi's words that he saidguide him: 
"Earth provides enough for every man's need, but not for every man's greed."

[HCDX] BBC commissions India Election Train to cover polls

2009-04-06 Thread sakthi vel

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has launched a unique multiplatform, 
multilingual initiative, the ‘India Election Train’ to cover news on the go 
during the run-up to the country’s General Elections in May.

Working with the Indian Railways, reporters from the BBC’s Global News division 
will travel through India by train, investigating what Indians want from their 
General Election and the key themes surrounding it from 25 April until 13 May.

On board the train will reporters from BBC World Service English, BBC Hindi, 
BBC Urdu, BBC Tamil, BBC Bengali, BBC Somali, BBC Swahili, BBC World News 
television, Arabic TV, Persian TV and BBC.Com/news. Highly knowledgeable about 
the country, a number permanently based there, the journalists will broadcast 
stories to the world, across radio, TV and online.

The BBC has worked with Indian Railways to design a timetable for the project 
and the train will travel along the following route: 
Delhi-Ahmedabad-Mumbai-Hyderabad-Bhubaneswar-Kokata 
(Kolkata)-Patna-Allahabad-Dehli. With the team visiting major population 
centres, as well as contrasting provincial towns and rural areas, the BBC’s 
global audience will get to hear the views of a wide range of Indian voters.

Online users will be able to track the journey of the train through a special 
interactive map and a daily blog available on the BBC’s India Election webpage 
www.bbc.com/india.

BBC reporters will investigate a variety of topics throughout their journey, 
with a key one being India’s response to the current economic crisis. India’s 
economy is still growing and some believe it could assist the recovery of other 
markets around the world.

Richard Sambrook, Director BBC Global News, says: “The BBC’s approach to 
covering the India Election is unique and representative of the breadth and 
depth of its newsgathering facility. Multiplatform and multilingual, the BBC 
India Election Train will provide audiences in India and around the world with 
an in-depth view of the election and the key themes and issues surrounding it”.

[HCDX] HD Radio launches 1,000 multicast stations

2009-03-30 Thread sakthi vel

HD Radio launches 1,000 multicast stations

HD Digital Radio Alliance, a joint initiative of leading radio broadcasters to 
accelerate the rollout of HD Radio, announced that 1,000 multicast stations are 
now being broadcast on-air and 100 SKUs are available at retail.

"In this economic environment, being able to receive all these extra stations 
around the country for free is immensely appealing," says HD Digital Radio 
Alliance president Diane Warren. "We intend to continue to educate and inform 
radio consumers and listeners about HD Radio, the new free stations, and the 
devices with the new radio advertising campaign in 100 markets on over 700 
stations."

Starting this week, the Alliance will launch its new on-air ad campaign, aimed 
at educating consumers that a new receiver is needed to enjoy the HD 
experience. Positioned as 'If you don't have an HD, you're not hearing HD. It's 
time to upgrade', the messaging reinforces the need for a radio upgrade in 
order to hear the digital quality sound and new stations.

The campaign will direct consumers to the homepage of HDRadio to view the 
station and buyer's guide. The home page of HDRadio.com will have scrolling 'MY 
DEALS' so that consumers can view bargains on receivers at various retailers.

With the rise in the number of digital stations, the number of receivers has 
also gone up. However, the price has gone down with units now available for as 
little as $79.

[HCDX] ABC fine-tunes Dundas and Torney for quest of multimedia age

2009-03-30 Thread sakthi vel

THE ABC's two new chiefs, Kate Torney and Kate Dundas, will be spearheading the 
national broadcaster's transformation into a truly multimedia platform..
Both women were chosen for their skills in multimedia and managing people but 
that doesn't mean the way ahead won't be bumpy as the broadcaster continues to 
deliver content not just on television and radio, but also online and on 
mobiles.

Dundas, appointed director of the sprawling radio division last week by 
managing director Mark Scott, has warned of a "challenging era" as staff adapt 
to the rapid change in technology.

The ABC's existing five analogue radio networks -- Radio National, NewsRadio, 
Triple J, Classic FM and Local Radio -- will be supplemented by digital radio 
from July 1.

"The major challenge will be to integrate media-rich services so a network is 
not just a radio station with a website added on," Dundas told Media.

"Each network needs to be really integrated to include everything from 
podcasting to user-generated content and that's hard -- that's cultural change."

While Triple J has made the leap into being a truly multi-platform network with 
a magazine, a TV show, games, original music, photos to accompany radio 
programs and other innovations, the more staid Radio National is yet to be 
fully converted.

Radio National has, however, been the leader in podcasting, with millions of 
podcasts being downloaded of programs from Philip Adams' Late Night Live to 
Fran Kelly's Breakfast.

"It's a different way of thinking," Dundas said of expecting broadcasting staff 
to create additional content for the web.

"And I have to look at the resources available to do that and see that people 
are skilled enough to do it. It's interesting to watch younger people coming 
through who do it with ease."

Dundas's examination of radio resources is a formal review which has been under 
way since late last year when her predecessor Sue Howard axed The Religion 
Report and several other shows to move resources online.

"Technology's made a huge difference," Dundas said. "Technology can help you 
produce different versions of things. Tape is so long gone.."

Scott appears to have been grooming Dundas for the position, moving her from 
radio to run the newly named department of People and Learning for 18 months. 
Making his announcement last week he said her experience in staff development 
would be important as the review of the ABC Radio division continued in the 
coming months.

"Kate will continue this work from the radio division, where the opportunities 
of new technology and the implementation of digital radio can be fully 
explored," Scott said in a statement.

"The ABC is currently in a strong position and we want to maintain that 
leadership in digital media, capitalising on our strengths in the key content 
areas of news and radio; the work of the directors of news and radio will be 
integral in this endeavour."

The other Kate, Kate Torney, who was appointed director of news last week and 
replaces John Cameron on April 14, also faces managing a huge cultural shift as 
the ABC moves to desktop editing of stories by reporters and fully automated 
news studios around the country.
Body:

Torney was head of Asia Pacific News, a job which involved managing the largest 
cross-platform international newsroom in the Asia-Pacific region, responsible 
for more than 60 journalists. She introduced broadcast technology to the 
Australia Network newsroom.

The two Kates have a lot in common. Apart from being directors of content at 
the ABC and sharing a name, they both have three children.

Dundas, 50, has twin boys, 15, and a 19-year-old son. Torney, 41, is still 
juggling a young family, with children aged two, six and 11. Her husband, John 
Duggan, is a photographer on The Age.

While Dundas succeeds Sue Howard, who was the first woman to run radio, Torney 
is the first woman to head the ABC's national news and current affairs empire. 
Her appointment is akin to print journalist Michelle Grattan's when she became 
the first female editor of a metropolitan daily newspaper as editor of The 
Canberra Times in 1993. She returned to The Age in 1995 as political editor.

Both women attribute being able to balance challenging jobs with raising 
families to a supportive workplace and family.

"I have an incredibly supportive husband and a terrific network of support to 
keep us going," Torney says.

She says it's a "great honour" to be the first woman to run the division but it 
didn't cross her mind when she went for the job and was shortlisted with three 
men. "I'm incredibly proud to work for an organisation that promotes on merit, 
and if it's an inspiration to other women who work in the media, that's 
terrific," she says. "But there's a range of extraordinary women working in 
senior roles at the ABC."

The real focus for Torney, who will soon be responsible for 700 journalists 
working on everything from The 7:30 Report to ABC News to Foreign 

[HCDX] 7 illegal FM radio channels blocked in Charsadda, Pakistan

2009-03-30 Thread sakthi vel

On the directive of federal government, the Charsadda District Administration 
Sunday closed seven illegal FM radio stations.

According to sources, the district administration was advised by the federal 
government to immediately block the transmission of all FM radio stations 
operating illegally in the area.

As a result, the local authorities blocked transmission of seven FM radio 
stations set up in Charsadda city and Shabqadar.

These radio stations were being used in seminaries and mosques for the purpose 
of teaching. (thenews.jang.com.pk)

[HCDX] Canadian Broadcaster Cuts 800 Jobs as Revenue Falls

2009-03-27 Thread sakthi vel

Canadian Broadcasting Corp., the country’s government-run radio and television 
agency, plans to cut as many as 800 jobs, or almost 10 percent of its 
workforce, to trim costs as advertising plummets.

The broadcaster faces a funding shortfall of C$171 million ($139 million) this 
year, forcing it to fire workers and scale back programming, according to a 
statement from Ottawa today. Factors contributing to the shortfall include 
declining advertising, aging infrastructure and increased programming costs.

“The shortfall was there and we were looking for ways of managing it and this 
is where we are today,” said Angus McKinnon, a spokesman for the broadcaster.

Seventy corporate-services employees will lose their jobs, as well as 393 
workers in the English operations and 336 in the French-language Radio-Canada 
service, McKinnon said. Executive pay will be cut as much as 20 percent, and 
the agency may sell C$125 million in assets.

The CBC gets about C$1 billion, or three-fifths of its overall budget, in 
public funds each year from taxpayers. Prime Minister Stephen Harper declined 
to provide bridge financing to cover a shortfall this year. The broadcaster 
said it can’t borrow on financial markets like its private competitors.

The cuts today are symptomatic of problems affecting all broadcasters in Canada 
and the biggest losers are people who live in smaller cities, where the CBC is 
sometimes the only local news operation, said Ian Morrison, a spokesman for 
programming watchdog Friends of Canadian Broadcasting.

‘Empty Warehouse’

“You’re stripping away a lot of production value capacity, so you keep the 
station open, but effectively it becomes an empty warehouse,” said Morrison, 
adding that the CBC made poor choices such as overpaying for U.S.-made shows 
and hockey rights. Morrison said the government should force cable and 
satellite companies to pay fees for the right to carry CBC and other 
conventional television stations.

The CBC, established in its current form in 1936 to preserve a Canadian point 
of view for news and programming, operates independently of the government. It 
has about 8,300 employees in 27 offices.

“At a time when Ottawa is supposed to be providing stimulus to the Canadian 
economy and ensuring that people maintain employment, cutting 800 jobs is the 
wrong approach to take,” Lise Lareau, the Canadian Media Guild’s national 
president, said in an e-mail to employees. “Once again, in spite of our 
supposed arm’s-length relationship with Parliament, CBC/Radio-Canada is 
completely at the mercy of the government of the day.”

Public Support

A Harris-Decima poll of 1,000 Canadians conducted March 12 to 15 found that 50 
percent supported the idea of a government line of credit for the CBC, while 41 
percent opposed it. The poll has a 3.1 percentage point margin of error.

In 2006, the CBC had about 12 percent of all local television advertising 
revenue in the English market and 26 percent in the French one, according to 
the latest data from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications 
Commission. The CBC doesn’t run ads on its radio stations, and it doesn’t plan 
to change this.

The broadcaster also plans to cut costs by scaling back radio and television 
programming for news, current affairs and music, and will reduce its marketing 
and travel budgets.

[HCDX] DRM general assembly to discuss DRM+ technology for FM

2009-03-25 Thread sakthi vel

The DRM Consortium annual General Assembly to be held in Erlangen, Germany on 
26-27 March  will hear and debate how the recent decisions of India and Russia 
to implement DRM technology for their SW and MW bands, will become the driving 
force for the rollout in the rest of the world.

Held under the theme of 'DRM Digital Radio - From Possibility to Reality' the 
General Assembly will be attended by Consortium members, experts, broadcasters, 
service providers and manufacturers from all over the world. India and Russia 
have recently made public their decision to implement DRM as the solution for 
digitising radio in their respective countries.

The DRM General Assembly will also assess the standardisation plans of DRM +, 
the technology to digitise FM bands with all existing DRM features plus CD 
quality sound. Scientists and experts involved in the development of DRM+ will 
explain how this new addition will complete the DRM family and make it a 
viable, total solution for broadcasters all over the world.

An independently commissioned business case study for DRM+ will also be 
unveiled at the event in southern Germany.

The technical heads of the European and Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Unions will 
also take part and express their views on the digital scene in the two 
continents. Ruxandra Obreja, Chairperson, DRM Consortium and Controller, 
Business Development, BBC World Service says, "I am excited and encouraged by 
the developments in India and Russia with their huge broadcasting networks and 
where DRM implementation will give radio a new and exciting 'digital' lease of 
life. The DRM General Assembly is well-timed to discuss the implication of this 
roll-out and that of DRM+, expected to join the family of openly-available 
worldwide DRM standards later this year."

The rollout of the DRM technology also heralds an opportunity for manufacturers 
to tap into these huge markets with smart receivers offering the consumers an 
enhanced radio experience.

[HCDX] IIT Bombay students launch web campus radio

2009-03-22 Thread sakthi vel

Students of IIT Bombay have launched their own campus web based radio station. 

The students were inspired by leading universities like MIT, Harvard and Yale 
that have their own successful on campus radio stations. Sajid Shariff, the 
general secretary of cultural affairs, IIT Bombay, says that they intend to 
provide the students through their LAN based radio station with a platform to 
voice their opinions, take part in debates and allow them to be more informed. 
The shows will include campus, city, national and international news, music, 
reviews of websites, information on books to read, gadgets, movies to watch, 
places and restaurants to hang out and extra-curricular activities. This is the 
first time a university in India has taken such an initiative. 

As all the online radio content has to be pre-recorded and loaded onto the site 
there were actually no expenses involved except for buying the mics, laptop 
mixer, cords and headphones, says Sajid. 

Sajid explains the minimal cost stating that there was no need to set up 
something as elaborate as a studio. The students use a room that goes by the 
name of Student Activity centre where shows are recorded. They use CDeep which 
is a technical support facility that takes care of networking and streaming on 
campus. 

The response on campus to the online radio station has been really good so far, 
he says. Sajid reveals that the Professors and other faculty members are 
extremely interested in the radio station as they want to address issues and 
topics with the students through this forum. A lot of students on campus have 
offered to be RJ’s for some of the shows and have also taken an active interest 
in providing ideas that different shows could be based on. 

The primary objective the students have for the radio station is to be able to 
provide good quality content to the students and be able to maintain that 
quality throughout. They intend to keep the interest for the campus radio going 
with updates that students would genuinely be interested in knowing about such 
as top ten websites, top movies, gadgets and relevant issues both on campus and 
nationally.

[HCDX] Sirius XM Radio to push content on Apple's devices

2009-03-14 Thread sakthi vel

Sirius XM Radio, which was on the verge of bankruptcy, has plans to offer its 
subscription radio service to Apple's iPhone and iPod touch sometime in spring. 

Sirius will be able to provide its subscribers access to streaming content 
including music, sports and talk channels to users of the iPhone and iPod Touch.

In a bid to steep up its sales, the company has a number of initiatives to make 
its content available everywhere. Sirius is examining opportunities to bundle 
its satellite radio service with TV packages from DirecTV Group. Last month, 
DirecTV's controlling shareholder Liberty Media Corp saved Sirius from debt by 
investing $530 million.

 

Also, Sirius is looking at catering to consumers directly. Since, the number of 
new car purchases is dipping, the radio company is making efforts to reach 
people who buy used cars with factory installed satellite radios.

[HCDX] BBC revamps mobile homepage

2009-03-12 Thread sakthi vel

The BBC has announced a new customisable homepage for the mobile version of its 
website that brings the phone version up-to-date with its full online offering.

The beta version of the homepage is available now for owners of some 
BlackBerrys, the iPhone, iPod touch and Google Android phones, for handsets 
running the Opera browser, all Nokia Nseries as well as "high-end" Sony 
Ericssons, Nokias and Samsungs.

The Beeb says the homepage has a "more live and up to date feel" and the 
customisation means users can create "localised" content, such as news, weather 
and TV schedules as well as chose favourite areas to appear on their main 
screen.

The BBC is currently asking for feedback on the new version and says they hope 
to be ready to remove the beta status and replace the current homepage at the 
end of March.

[HCDX] VoA steps us Net usage to reach listeners

2009-03-12 Thread sakthi vel

The Voice of America, which now broadcasts 1,500 hours of radio and television 
news and feature programmes each week for a foreign audience of 134 million 
people, is increasingly using the Internet to interact with its audience.

In addition to transmitting news and information, it operates social networking 
programs on its website and uses blogs and webchats to encourage audience 
participation.

It also uses the Internet for English language learning programmes. In 2008, 
VoA awarded a contract to Alelo Inc to develop an interactive Web-based 
learning portal to teach English as a second language. The portal is extremely 
popular with college-age students in China and Iran.

VoA Director Dan Austin said in a recent interview to America.gov that it had 
been told the new Obama administration feels that “what we do, dollar for 
dollar, is one of the better investments the American taxpayer can make.”  

Austin said the VoA will continue to provide timely news and information to 
more than 130 million people worldwide while pursing innovative ways to engage 
this audience.

The former Wall Street Journal reporter and executive, who now oversees VoA’s 
$190 million budget, said, “Our fundamental mission has basically remained the 
same” since VoA began broadcasting in 1942 during World War II.

“Our task is still to provide accurate, balanced and comprehensive news and 
information programs for foreign audiences. We are just expanding our technical 
ability to do that while at the same time using state-of-the-art information 
technology to have a dialogue with people.”

Its 1,100 journalists and technicians broadcast in 45 languages (25 through its 
television arm), using a growing network of 1,200 local radio and television 
stations, as well as cable systems.

“Our strategy for reaching audiences is market- and research - driven,” Austin 
explained.“We are investing a fair amount of money into our technological 
infrastructure,” Austin said. “Right now, we have one foot in the analog world 
and one foot in the digital world.”

“But, bit by bit, we’re putting together a [digital] system,” he said, that 
eliminates tapes and similar recording and playing equipment, relying instead 
on computerization to get better quality quickly and cost-effectively.

[HCDX] Vodafone steps up DRM-free mobile music initiative

2009-03-11 Thread sakthi vel

Vodafone claims it will be the first global mobile network operator to offer 
music free of DRM when it makes the switch to a large proportion of its 
Vodafone Music Store catalog for mobile and PC by the summer, according to a 
Billboard report.

While Germany, Italy, the UK, Spain and New Zealand will be the first 
territories to roll out DRM-free services,  Australia, the Czech Republic, 
Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, South 
Africa and Turkey will follow "in due course," along with services on 
Vodafone's partner networks in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, 
Iceland, Slovenia and Switzerland.

Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment and EMI Music have all agreed 
to the format conversion. The remaining major label, Warner Music, and all 
independent labels on Vodafone's catalog are yet to confirm participation. 
Tracks from these labels will remain available on the site in the original DRM 
format.

Tracks can be transferred to any digital device owned by the customer, 
including mobile phones and PCs. As well as this, Vodafone is allowing 
customers to upgrade previously purchased tracks to be DRM-free at no extra 
charge within the existing download allowance.

The Vodafone Music Store, powered by RealNetworks, is available exclusively to 
Vodafone customers. It has over a million tracks in its catalog, available to 
purchase as single tracks or album bundles. All purchases can be dual-delivered 
to a mobile and PC free of charge.

[HCDX] AIR recovers historic '59 Martin Luther King Jr interview

2009-02-05 Thread sakthi vel
An archival recording found by the staff of All India Radio quotes
Civil Rights activist Martin Luther King Jr as saying Gandhi “embodied
in his life certain universal principles that are inherent in the moral
structure of the universe, and these principles are as inescapable as
the law of gravitation.”
The recording was made a day before he left India in March
1959. The recording dated 9 March 1959 is available on All India Radio
at the website http://www.indianembassy.org/newsite/press_release/2009/Jan/MLK 
on All India Radio.mp3. The transcript is also available on the Embassy of 
India in Washington’s website at  
http://www.indianembassy.org/newsite/press_release/2009/Jan/17.asp
Invited by then Indian prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru, King
along with his wife Coretta and biographer Lawrence Reddick, arrived in
Mumbai on 9 February 1959, and traveled to New Delhi and several other
cities over the next four weeks.
The 50th anniversary of that historic journey is being
commemorated this month with a visit to India by King’s son, Martin
Luther King III; members of the US Congress, including Representative
John Lewis who is the last surviving speaker from the 1963 March on
Washington; Clayborne Carson, editor of several volumes of King’s
papers; jazz musician Herbie Hancock; and others.
This State Department–sponsored tour will include two musical
performances by Hancock plus a special tribute by Indian musicians.

[HCDX] FM round up: South India - A year of opportunities

2009-01-04 Thread sakthi vel
2008 turned out to be a year of opportunities for FM operators south of the 
Vindhyas, as many players launched their stations during the year. 2009, say 
most, will be a year of consolidation.

An interesting aspect of the Bangalore market that the initial RAM listenership 
survey had mapped as a high morning listenership and high out of home 
listenership TG, was the conversion to Kannada. With the exception of a Radio 
Indigo, which stuck to its premise of international music, several players 
preferred to target masses by going the Kannada way.

The Sun Network led SFM launched its stations across Kerala, Tamil Nadu and 
Andhra Pradesh in 2008. Educating the masses about commercial FM stations was a 
challenge, believes SFM Kerala station head Girish Babu. “Kerala had always 
been an All India Radio (AIR) dominated market, so we have to educate listeners 
about the FM concept. Even today, there is a chunk of listeners who tune into 
AIR for their news content. It would work for our benefit if independent news 
in allowed in the FM space.”

Echoes SFM Programming Director (Karnataka) Sathish Chandra, “Our stations were 
in the concept setting stage in Gulbarga, Mysore and other places, but the 
audiences accepted us fairly well.”

SFM also adopted marketing gimmicks like giving out gold coins to every 
listener who calls the radio station in the initial months of its launch for 
almost all its stations.

Chennai Live (another station that launched in July) station head Prem Kumar 
says, “We have positioned ourselves differently from the other stations as we 
have adopted the talk format. It had been an enriching year for us.”

Fever's Bangalore station head Anjali Paul, “It was an interesting year for 
Fever- Bangalore as our radio station underwent a format change this year. We 
changed our music content from Hindi and English to complete Kannada as we 
believe Kannada has the potential to be aspirational.”

Advertising

Advertising in the south Indian market predominantly comprises local retailers 
with a good chunk of national corporate ones.

Talking about his stations in Mysore, Gulbarga, Bangalore and Mangalore, 
Chandra says, “I would say we are positioned at a 50- 50 per cent ratio when it 
comes to advertising, with both retail and national occupying a fair share. We 
are still educating the advertisers about the potential of radio as an 
advertising medium and it will take two to three years from now for the scene 
to change.”
Referring to the Kerala market, Girish Babu opines, “Kerala is dominated by 
regional players and the advertising ratio would be 60 per cent of regional and 
40 per cent of national advertisers.”

Radio stations in Tamil Nadu enjoy a mixed bag of national and regional 
advertising, adds Chennai live station head Prem Kumar states, “Radio 
advertising currently constitutes about seven-10 per cent of the total 
advertising pie in TN. Our main focus in 2009 would be getting the advertisers 
showcase their premium brands as well along with their mass brands.”

SFM Andhra Pradesh Programming head Shobhana says, “Our advertising picked up 
this year because more stations were launched and advertisers looking out for 
pan Idia presence thought it viable to advertise on our station. Also, the 
sales tie up with Red FM has added to our advertising volumes..”

Owing to the global recession, the amount of advertising expenditure has 
reduced but the south Indian market seems to be still intact. Avers Fever 
Bangalore station head Anjali Paul, “This quarter saw some amount of the 
aftermath of the global meltdown in radio advertising. Although radio is 
economical compared to other mediums, radio alone can’t create a brand, it can 
build on a brand that's created by other media. Our Bangalore station is still 
receiving a fair share of advertising with a healthy balance of both, national 
and local retail.”

Agrees Shobhana, “Although recession has hit most of the sectors, radio seems 
to be unaffected at the moment. There hasn’t been a change in the advertising 
yet and we believe advertisers will realise the potential of radio as being 
economical and targeting the same set of listeners.”

During 2008, many advertisers and clients pulled their budgets into radio down 
south and in 2009, the amount of money to be invested in radio would increase 
substantially, believe many radio operators.

Stumbling blocks

Radio stations in Kerala had to bear with problems of frequency overlaps in 
their Thrissur and Cochin stations. An industry insider says, radio stations in 
Trissur enjoyed the advertisers’ attention as their frequency extended till 
Cochin, but there was a 50 per cent fall in the advertising revenue of Thrissur 
stations after the launch of stations in Cochin. Similar problems have been 
seen in parts of Tirunelveli and Tuticorin in Chennai.

Although frequency overlap persists to be a problem, this doesn’t seem to 
affect the listenership. As Girish Babu puts it, “Frequency

[HCDX] Indian Broadcast industry awaits govt nod to key policies

2008-12-30 Thread sakthi vel
Come 

Advertisement
2009, the broadcast and cable industry will once again be looking at the 
government for a slew of policy initiatives in sectors like FM radio, cable 
distribution platforms and mobile TV, which otherwise remained stuck this year 
due to several reasons.

The expansion of conditional access system (CAS) across 55 cities and a clarity 
on the revenue-sharing formula with DTH firms are among the pending issues on 
which initiatives from the government may come in 2009, industry sources say.

2009 may also see the nod from the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting 
(I&B) to some of the 150-odd pending applications from broadcasters who are 
looking to launch more television channels.

Among the major policy initiatives that may get a push from the I&B ministry 
include approval to the third-phase expansion of private FM radio that will 
eventually see setting up of at least 500 new FM stations. The final 
recommendation in the matter has already been submitted to the I&B ministry by 
the broadcast regulator.

"Once the music royalty issue between FM radio firms and the music industry is 
sorted out, we expect the government to announce the third phase roll out of FM 
radio," a senior executive of a leading FM station said. So far, over 250 FM 
stations have come up across 91 cities.

On the cable front, some of the large cable companies like Digicable, Hathway, 
InCable and DEN, among others, are waiting for a clear policy on the new cable 
distribution platform called Headend-In-The-Sky (HITS). According to industry 
sources, the file on HITS has been waiting for the I&B ministry's nod for over 
six months now. "Currently, only Essel Group has the licence to operate HITS. A 
clear policy in the matter will open doors for other companies to seek HITS 
licence," said a source in the cable industry.

HITS enables a pan-India distribution of cable channels using a satellite, a 
technology similar to that of direct-to-home (DTH) operators. However, in HITS 
the end-users are the cable operators, while in DTH, the end-user is the 
consumer.

In 2009, the I&B ministry is also expected to clear its stand on the 
much-controversial expansion of CAS that has so far been limited to the select 
parts of Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata. "CAS expansion in 55 cities as recommended 
by Trai will be a tricky issue for the I&B ministry. Then there is a Delhi High 
Court order in the matter so CAS will remain a challenge for the government 
even in 2009," said a representative of MSO Alliance, the apex body of cable 
distribution firms who were successful in getting CAS enforced in January 2007.

In 2008, the major initiative taken by the I&B ministry was the policy 
announcement on Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) in September. According to the I&B 
ministry's statement, IPTV will open the doors for another mode of distribution 
of signals whereby 400 permitted satellite TV channels will get distributed 
through the telecom networks.

[HCDX] Azerbaijan restricts foreign radio broadcasts

2008-12-30 Thread sakthi vel
The government of Azerbaijan has terminated broadcast licences issued to 
foreign radio stations. As of 1 January, numerous broadcasters, including the 
BBC, Voice of America and Radio Free Europe, will no longer be allowed to 
broadcast on national frequencies. Europe and the United States have severely 
criticised the decision and accused Azerbaijan of restricting press freedom. 
Baku says the new regulations are not politically motivated and pointed out 
that foreign radio stations will still be allowed to broadcast via cable and 
internet.

[HCDX] UK ready to shift to digital radio by '17: report

2008-12-22 Thread sakthi vel
Britain could be ready to migrate from analogue to digital radio as early as 
2017, according to the final report of UK's Digital Radio Working Group (DRWG).

The group has renewed its commitment to Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) and 
set out a clear path for migration to digital, identifying the criteria that 
would need to be met for it to happen and when it might occur. The Digital 
Radio Working Group (DRWG) was established in November 2007 to look at the 
future of digital radio.

According to DRWG chairman Barry Cox, “With nearly a million DAB sets expected 
to be sold this Christmas period we know listeners are already benefiting from 
the choice of channels available at the moment. We have always believed in the 
future of digital radio and now urge the industry, along with Government and 
Ofcom to address the barriers to successful migration, so people can access 
even more choice and functionality in the future. Most importantly, we need to 
see overall coverage for DAB improve, along with more focus to get motorists to 
adopt DAB so that it can be a real alternative to FM services.”

The group has singled out three criteria which must be met in order to trigger 
digital migration. These are: that at least 50 per cent of total radio 
listening must occur on digital platforms, the national multiplex coverage must 
be comparable to current FM coverage, and local multiplexes should reach at 
least 90 per cent of the population, including all major roads.

The group has recommended that Ofcom should monitor progress against the 
criteria on an ongoing basis and that a date for migration should be announced 
by Government, ideally two years after the criteria have been met. They believe 
this could happen as early as 2017.

In order to meet the criteria, the group has highlighted a number of barriers 
they believe should be overcome, and have suggested possible solutions. In 
particular, they propose the government relax some of the existing legislative 
and regulatory burdens placed on the industry, and call for more focus on 
encouraging motorists to adopt DAB in their cars. They also recommend the 
Government consider with European colleagues a duty exemption for digital 
radios in order to enable cheaper sets and drive further take-up.

Commenting on the report, Culture Secretary Andy Burnham said, “This is a 
crucial time for the radio industry. I am pleased that the Working Group has 
been able to achieve such consensus and has recognised that there needs to be a 
strong consumer proposition for digital radio. We will now study the 
recommendations made by the group very carefully as part of the wider work 
being undertaken for the ‘Digital Britain’ report. I would like to thank all 
members of the group for their work in looking at this issue over the past 
year.”
Barry Cox has been appointed to the Steering Board of Digital Britain to ensure 
that the overall strategy and direction of its report reflects the important 
place that digital radio will have in Digital Britain.

The Digital Radio Working Group sets out a long-term preference for the 
creation of a three tier system of radio in the UK. This would include a wide 
range of national digital radio services from the BBC and commercial radio, and 
a sustainable set of local digital services from the BBC and commercial radio 
covering as much of the UK as possible. A third tier of small scale services 
focussed on serving the local community would remain on analogue in the short 
to medium term but move to digital at a later date.

[HCDX] After an exciting 2008, Indian radio industry to play the wait and watch game in 2009

2008-12-21 Thread sakthi vel
After two years of growth and consolidation in 2007 and 2008, the FM radio 
industry in India is looking forward to further growth in 2009. With the likely 
allowing of news and current affairs programmes on private FM radio and Phase 
III expansion policy expected to be announced soon, there are some 
action-packed times ahead.

However, as exchange4media finds out, there is also a cautious eye that the 
industry ie keeping on the current economic slowdown scenario.

The year of consolidation

According to industry players, 2008 has been a phenomenal one with a lot of 
excitement as also a period of consolidation.

According to Apurva Purohit, CEO, Radio City, and President, AROI, “The year 
2008 has clearly been a year of fulfilment with the Radio City brand offering 
an even richer experience to both listeners and advertisers alike. The 
successful launch of our national network was followed by a consistent and 
uncompromising city-focus in every market of operation, which was taken across 
to our listeners with extremely successful and clutter-breaking campaigns.”

She added, “Our domain leadership among SEC AB audiences offered advertisers a 
potently effective, quality delivery vehicle to showcase their brands. 
Furthermore, we added to our portfolio of offerings, thereby allowing the 
advertiser the leeway to opt for an integrated brand experience. Planet 
Radiocity marked our foray into the digital domain, we ventured into a new, 
dedicated business vertical. Leading our thrust on non-traditional revenues via 
activations, we announced Radio City Connect, our full spectrum activations 
cell providing end-to-end 360 degree brand marketing solutions.”

Prashant Panday CEO, Radio Mirchi, observed, “We had a good first half and like 
other media companies, we are also facing unprecedented challenges in the third 
quarter. Tough times call for tough decisions – and we are working at making 
the best of the situation. But, there is no denying that the advertising 
business is in a bad shape right now. I do feel, however, that by January 2009, 
a lot of the bad news may dissipate as brands emerge with new budgets.”

Abraham Thomas, COO, Red FM, noted, “The year has been good for Red FM, we have 
further consolidated our position as the No.1 station based on our 
thought-provoking content and attitude. Besides that, we have worked on taking 
the brand beyond radio to other media with associations like Bindass Live with 
Malishka and Bajaate Raho Awards.”

He further said, “Overall, the year 2008 has been a year of progressive 
reforms, paving the way for further changes in the years ahead. Most of the 
talked about changes have been progressive policy changes such as allowing 
political ads on radio, etc. They have been targeted towards increasing the 
penetration of the medium as well as allowing new sources of revenue for the 
industry.”

Harrish M Bhatia, COO, My FM, said, “From the very beginning, 2008 was a very 
productive year for us since we had completed the 17-station launches by the 
end of last year. And this year was the growth period and time to consolidate 
our position in our markets. We have come back with 50 per cent more 
listenership than Big FM in Chandigarh and Radio Mirchi in Raipur.. We have 
been constantly innovating our content and programming, keeping in mind the 
evolving preferences of our listeners.”

Different strokes for 2009

Looking ahead, Purohit said, “The year 2009 is not going to be an easy year for 
any industry, however, to what extent is something that no one can predict. If 
the several initiatives being planned by the Government play out and the 
economy does get a boost, we are seeing a recovery as early as April 2009. If 
not, then we may be in for a long haul of slowing growth.”

She added, “I think it is a great opportunity for not just Radio City, but the 
entire radio industry to reiterate the medium’s effectiveness and high ROI for 
brands wanting to use micro or localised marketing as a strategy to manage the 
slowdown. We thus hope to see more and more astute marketers benefiting from 
radio in 2009.”

Thomas explained, “Radio, which is already proving to be a more cost effective 
medium for local/ retail advertisers, is poised for a higher growth rate than 
other local media such as print and outdoor. From an advertiser’s perspective, 
Radio’s CPT is around Rs 331 as compared to the CPT of print, which stands at 
Rs 1,176, which is important to note in these times of global economic 
recession and meltdown.”

Bhatia observed, “As far as 2009 is concerned, My FM is definitely looking 
forward to an even brighter year ahead. We are already geared to embrace the 
permission to broadcast news and current affairs and are hoping that the 
settlement of music royalty issues will give a boost to the growth as well. 
These issues are common to all radio players. Furthermore, in the third phase 
of licensing, we will be looking to establish ourselves as a leading

[HCDX] Isro-built European satellite to boost broadcasting services

2008-12-21 Thread sakthi vel
Isro-built European satellite W2M along with Eutelsat's Hot Bird 9 satellite 
for broadcasting services will launch on 21 December.

The Ariane-5 rocket will be launched from Kourou spaceport in French Guiana, 
South America.

The W2M carries 32 transponders in Ku-band as against 64 transponders in the 
same band by Hot Bird. Its transponders will be used for the broadcast of 
digital and the new high-definition TV channels, besides interactive services. 
The satellites will cover a vast area extending across Europe, North Africa and 
the Middle East.

"W2M displays great flexibility to operate a wide range of services from 
television broadcasting to data networks and broadband. It has fixed beam 
coverage for Europe, North Africa and Middle East and a steerable beam which 
can be re-oriented in orbit according to market requirements, notably towards 
Africa and central Asia," Antrix managing director Sreedhar Murthy pointed out.

 
According to Arianespace, the W2M, to be carried in the rocket's lower 
passenger slot, will be positioned at an orbital slot of 16 degrees east. Its 
32 transponders will provide both television and radio broadcasting services 
for Eutelsat.

Hot Bird will be released first during the mission sequence from the rocket's 
upper position stack and deployed in the orbital slot of 13 degrees East..

 
The 3,462-kg W2M was designed and built at the satellite centre of Isro in 
Bangalore at $80 million (Rs 4 billion) for the European satellite operator 
(Eutelsat) under the Isro-EADS-Astrium alliance formed in 2006.
Isro-Antrix formed the alliance with EADS (European Aeronautic Defence and 
Space) Astrium, Europe's satellite system specialist to build communication and 
broadcast satellites for the international market.

[HCDX] International Broadcasters Pledge Accuracy, Objectivity and Truth

2008-12-18 Thread sakthi vel
The representatives of international broadcasters - BBC World Service, Deutsche 
Welle, Radio France Internationale, Radio Netherlands Worldwide and the Voice 
of America – who met in Paris on Thursday , recognized the important 
contribution the Declaration has made to promoting a better-informed world.

The meeting, at Radio France Internationale, noted the importance of Article 19 
of the Declaration, which states, "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion 
and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without 
interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any 
media and regardless of frontiers."

They said that their organizations must continue to maintain the highest 
journalistic standards of accuracy, objectivity and truth in upholding the 
Declaration.

They noted that some governments have been implicated in harassing, detaining, 
expelling, threatening or - in extreme cases - killing journalists, committed 
as they are to freedom and information. They also expressed, with regret, the 
efforts by some governments to contravene the Declaration by interfering with 
international broadcasts through deliberate blocking of transmitters 
("jamming") and blocking of websites.

The broadcasters underlined the continued determination of their broadcast 
organizations to overcome these obstacles in order to reach the largest 
possible audiences worldwide, through traditional means - radio and television 
- as well as the Internet and other emerging digital media.

These new media, they noted, offer unprecedented opportunities for interaction 
across national borders and between diverse groups of people, in keeping with 
the spirit of the Declaration, which enshrines the right to "receive and impart 
information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."

Alain de Pouzilhac, CEO of Radio France Internationale said "Our meeting in 
Paris was very constructive and I am delighted that the five major 
international broadcasters share the same desire to broadcast objective and 
impartial news broadcasts to all publics."

The Voice of America, which first went on the air in 1942, is a multimedia 
international broadcasting service funded by the U.S. government through the 
Broadcasting Board of Governors.  VOA broadcasts approximately 1,500 hours of 
news, information, educational, and cultural programming every week to an 
estimated worldwide audience of more than 134 million people.  Programs are 
produced in 45 languages.

[HCDX] One third of UK adults listen to radio via Net

2008-12-11 Thread sakthi vel
Almost one third (31.7 per cent) of the UK's adult population have listened to 
the radio via the internet, according to new research from Rajar.

According to a report in the New Media Edge, the third Rajar Measurement of 
Internet Delivered Audio Services has revealed that 16.1 million people claim 
to have listened to the radio via the internet compared with 14.5 million 
people in May 2008.

The report, compiled in October this year, says that of this, 15 million listen 
live and 13.5 million use a Listen Again service, with the majority tuning in 
at home (89 per cent) while 21 per cent listen at work and six per cent listen 
elsewhere.

The number of people to have used a Personalised Online Radio was 2.9 million, 
up from 2.1 million in May.  The survey also found 7.2 million people have 
downloaded a podcast, up from six million in May with 4.1 million  tuning in 
weekly, up from 3.7 million in May and up 2.2 million year-on-year.

The average podcast user subscribes to 4.41 podcasts with comedy and music the 
favourite genres. Some three quarters of users listen on their personal 
computer and 78.7 per cent listen at home, while 65.7 per cent transfer them to 
portable devices and 44.8 per cent listen in the car or on public transport.

Some 55 per cent of respondents would be interested in downloading podcasts 
containing advertising if they were free. 33 per cent responded positively to 
the idea of podcasts without adverts that had to be paid for, however just 
three per cent of podcast listeners have ever paid for a podcast.

The report quotes Rajar research manager Christel Lacaze as saying that, "With 
the increase in broadband internet access rising from 51 per cent of UK 
households in 2007 to 56 per cent in 2008 and the high profile launch of BBC 
iPlayer, listening to the radio has never been a more attractive proposition.

The survey was conducted during October 2008 by Ipsos MORI and is based on the 
responses of 1,142 respondents.

[HCDX] Indian Ministries prepare for third round of radio licences

2008-11-18 Thread sakthi vel
Preparations are under way in various government ministries for the third round 
of radio licensing. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (I&B) has 
asked the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (C&IT) for the 
availability of frequencies.

Speaking to afaqs! about the development, an informed source in the I&B 
ministry says, “Since we plan to give licences for Tier D towns and small 
cities in the next round, we have asked the C&IT ministry to provide us with 
the required frequencies.” The request is being processed and the source adds 
that it will take at least two-three weeks to get the exact availability.

It is learnt that the ministry is eager to provide licences in Category C and D 
towns. They were covered in the second round of licencing, however they were 
not in sufficient numbers. Though private radio operators will definitely look 
into operational viability in such places, government is hoping that the next 
round of licensing will see aggressive bidders which will ensure that radio 
reaches maximum number of people.

Once the ministry gets a clear view on the frequencies, the policy will be 
prepared and finetuned. Subsequently, it will be passed on to various 
ministries such as the Ministry of Law and to the Prime Minister’s Office. 
Possible suggestions and modifications may then be incorporated. After this, a 
cabinet note will be prepared by the ministry, which will be passed on to the 
cabinet secretary for presentation to the cabinet. 

Given the functioning of the government machinery, the time period for the 
announcement of the policy could not be ascertained. Sources, however, gave a 
tentative date in the first quarter of 2009. 

One factor which could have an adverse impact on the completion of the 
procedure is the announcement of the forthcoming general elections. Currently, 
241 private radio stations are operating in the country and the I&B ministry 
intends to give out licences for around 700 more, including 350-400 from Tier D 
towns.

[HCDX] CVC to launch internet radio targeting Indians

2008-11-16 Thread sakthi vel
International broadcaster CVC is set to launch its new online radio station, 
www.cvcradio.in, on Monday.

The independent radio station will offer the best music from around the globe, 
including all the latest international chart music as well as Hindi hits,

The company that boasts of state of the art studios in Karnataka and Australia 
and correspondents in 26 countries around the world, says it will have 
integrated live programming functioning from two different corners of the 
globe. Listeners will be able to respond to programmes by contacting radio 
jockeys  by SMS or email to request songs, express views on topics and shout 
out to their friends. "All our programs are interactive and focus on getting 
the listeners involved and even sharing their opinions on air," says company 
spokesperson Aimee Pearce.

“CVC’s unique, hybrid sound reflects the melting pot of urban India,” says 
CVC’s Director Mike Edmiston. “When I have coffee at a café in Mumbai, I can 
drink beans from Kenya, from a cup made in China, while listening to music from 
the US and reading the news from all over India. The world is a fusion of 
cultures now and CVC mirrors that reality.”

CVC claims to have six years broadcast experience in the Asia Pacific region 
and believes the internet represents the future of radio. "CVC is a 
not-for-profit organization which is fantastic because it means we don’t have 
to compromise our sound with advertisements. This means that the listener gets 
more time to listen to their favourite RJs, express their views, hear their 
favourite music and get all the latest Indian and international news," says the 
company.

The station would also be eager to involve talented emerging artists and give 
them a platform to showcase their music. "We would encourage bands and 
musicians to get in contact with us so we can feature their music on some of 
our programs," says Pearce. "We take pride in being a radio station that is for 
all Indian youth. We wholeheartedly believe that living in a small town, does 
not constitute having a small mind and we provide a platform for all Indian 
youth to get involved and share their views in ways that they may not have had 
the opportunity to do before. That’s why we play a wide range of music genres 
and talk about a variety of different topics that affect all Indians."
CVC also hopes to raise its online profile with advertising on music sites and 
social networking sites that speak to young people where they are at.  "We are 
also keen to expand our promotional strategy in the future by taking our name 
to the streets in a variety of different ways including the possibility of 
doing Outside Broadcasts," she adds.

“We’re living in a digital world. The next logical step for radio is to go 
beyond offering a one-way monologue and engage in an interactive conversation 
with listeners. The internet is the best medium to facilitate that” says 
Edmiston.

"CVC wants to at the forefront of internet radio. As India expands rapidly 
technologically, we want to make sure we have the services available to cater 
for the increasing number of technology-hungry young people. We want to move 
away from niche markets and establish ourselves as a station that is targeted 
and accessible to all young Indians," he concludes.

[HCDX] WorldSpace India's expansion plans hit regulatory hurdle

2008-11-12 Thread sakthi vel
Satellite radio service provider WorldSpace India’s plan to expand its business 
locally and open additional revenue stream in the country — through setting up 
a studio for creating digital content and a call centre — seems to have hit 
regulatory hurdles.

WorldSpace India’s proposal to the Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB) 
has been deferred till the Department of Information Technology (DIT) submits 
its views. Both the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (I&B) and the 
Department of Telecommunication (DoT) have informed FIPB that the matter is 
beyond their working area.It should be noted that the licensing and regulation 
of satellite radio comes under the purview of the I&B ministry, while the 
allocation of spectrum for radio services is the responsibility of DoT.Hurdles 
to the proposal from WorldSpace India also gained importance because its parent 
company, WorldSpace Inc, has filed for bankruptcy protection in the United 
States and are looking at its India operations to expand business.WorldSpace 
India has sought the FIPB nod for setting up a wholly owned subsidiary that 
will include setting up of a studio for carrying outsourcing, commissioning and 
production of digital audio and
 multimedia software programmes for both domestic and international market. 
When contacted, a senior executive of WorldSpace India refused to 
comment.According to the proposal, WorldSpace India wants to open a call 
centre.It is also looking to import digital satellite receivers, data adaptors, 
PC add-on cards and accessories and sell the same to the distributors and 
dealors either as customs bonded warehouse sale or on a cash and carry basis. 
However, WorldSpace India does not seek any fresh inflow of foreign investments 
for its proposals.While I&B said that the web-based services are not regulated 
by them so they can not comment, the DoT has informed the FIPB that WorldSpace 
India’s proposal and the scope of work mentioned in their applications does not 
fall in the ISP category therefore comments should be sought from DIT.

[HCDX] I&B Ministry moots news bulletins in private FM radio in India

2008-10-14 Thread sakthi vel
I&B Ministry moots news bulletins in private FM radio

A long-standing demand of private FM radio players is set to be fulfilled by 
the year-end. After Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) recommended 
news in private FM radio, albeit with some restrictions, the I&B Ministry has 
now reportedly given its nod to 261 private FM channels to air news and current 
affairs programmes produced by All India Radio (AIR).

Of course, the Ministry's proposal would require the signature of Information 
and Broadcasting Minister Priya Ranjan Dasmunsi, who is currently admitted at 
the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in Delhi following a cardiac 
arrest. After the Minister signs it, the proposal would require Cabinet 
clearance.

When exchange4media spoke to a cross-section of FM players and media players 
about the latest development, they were obviously positive about it, though 
most were not aware of such a proposal being made by the I&B Ministry.

Uday Chawla, Secretary General, Association for Radio Operators for India 
(AROI), remarked, "Having news or sports as an intricate part of content will 
immensely benefit the radio industry and listeners. The point of concern for 
the Government is deciding the extent to which the news broadcast should be 
allowed in this phase. In case Phase III gets delayed, we have requested the 
Government to allow the broadcast of news, current affairs and specifically 
sports in the interim."

'Value-addition to local content'

Reacting to the news, Tarun Katial, COO, Big FM, remarked, "We welcome this 
development as it adds richness to the local content on the local channel and 
would give a boost to the FM station. It would also create some kind of 
differentiation in the market. We have also prepared ourselves to fulfill these 
responsibilities and are planning to create infrastructural changes."

Vehrnon Ibrahim, National Programming Head, Radio One, said "After waiting for 
seven years, I think it is a step forward, though not a step we would like, but 
certainly a step in the right direction. I see this as an opener and not as a 
final position. I am looking forward for this and I welcome it and we are 
certainly prepared for news and current events. I suppose at some point of time 
we will have a self regulatory body."

Nandan Srinath, COO, Radio Mirchi, commented, "From the listener point of view, 
the product is certainly getting better. We at Mirchi are certainly ready and 
prepared to carry news and current affairs and look forward to this soon. If 
this allows greater stickiness of listenership and more audiences who are not 
using radio at this point of time to come into the radio fold, then there is an 
indirect bearing on the revenue stream."

Calling the move a step in the right direction, Harrish M Bhatia, COO, My FM, 
Synergy Media Entertainment Ltd, opined, "Broadcast of news will increase the 
listener base and lend more credibility, authenticity and trust to FM radio. 
Listeners will start taking FM radio even more seriously once news and current 
affairs are allowed on it."

Nisha Narayanan, Project Head, S FM, observed, "Diversification of content will 
be the direct implication of the permission to broadcast news in private FM 
stations. This will not only boost listnership, but also provide headway to 
advertisers."

Though Kunal Jamuar, GM, Madison Media, didn't see any huge value or even 
commercial implications coming to the industry, he added that "it will 
certainly give consumers a differentiated content. I don't see any major 
changes in terms of revenue".

Uday Chawla pointed out, "If you look at the TV industry, almost 15 per cent of 
revenue accrues to news channels. Improvement in content translates to more 
listenership, which translates to more revenue."

Tarun Nigam, Executive Director, India - North & Pakistan, Starcom Worldwide, 
noted, "The green signal to private FM channels for broadcasting news is 
reminiscent of the good old Akashvani days in the radio mode. Like TV has a 
bouquet of channels, radio, too, can witness an upsurge of players, depending 
on the license fees."

In contrast, Anita Nayyar, CEO, MPG, India, remarked, "Since the USP of private 
FM is music, the broadcast of news would result in dilution of programming and 
content. This is like the personification of AIR."

Is a regulatory body needed to monitor news?

Speaking on the need for a regulatory body, Chawla said, "AROI will welcome 
permission for carrying news and sports content and has offered all cooperation 
to the Government in this regard, including formation of a self-regulatory 
content control mechanism."

Radio Mirchi's Srinath added, "Since news and current affairs content would 
come from AIR, I don't see the need for a self-regulatory body. But over a

[HCDX] New director general for All India Radio

2008-09-23 Thread sakthi vel
G Jayalal, deputy director general, All India Radio (AIR) has been promoted as 
director general of the country's premier audio broadcaster.

Jayalal, who was serving as deputy DG, programming, planning and development, 
took charge as new the DG last week. He has been appointed on a temporary basis.

The post has been filled after a gap of more than a year, since the tenure of 
last DG (AIR) Brijeshwar Singh had ended in May 2007. Singh, an IAS officer 
from the Tamil Nadu cadre, was a full-fledged DG of AIR.

B S Lalli, CEO, Prasar Bharati, had been handling additional charge as DG of 
both AIR and Doordarshan till recently. Information and Broadcasting ministry 
had earlier objected to a retired IAS officer holding charge of the DG of DD 
and AIR. Lalli, a retired IAS officer, was appointed as CEO of Prasar Bharati 
last year.

Subsequently, the ministry was sent a list of nominees for the two posts by 
Prasar Bharati, and Noreen Naqvi was appointed as DG (DD) on the basis of 
seniority, though her appointment too is on a temporary basis.

Jayalal's appointment has also been ordered on seniority basis. He joined AIR 
in 1978 and had served as station director of Tirunelveli, Port Blair, 
Puducherry, Thiruvananthapuram and Bangalore, before heading the southern zone 
of AIR stations as DDG.

[HCDX] Germany's Deutsche Welle (DW) Radio, to air programme in three Indian languages

2008-08-24 Thread sakthi vel
Deutsche Welle (DW) Radio, Germany's international broadcaster, will soon 
broadcast programmes in three Indian languages, an official said Tuesday.

The broadcaster and the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) have 
signed an agreement to this effect, varsity pro-vice chancellor Latha Pillai 
said Tuesday.

Gyan Vani FM, the radio channel of IGNOU, will facilitate broadcasting of 
DW-RADIO programming in Hindi, Urdu, Bengali and English over campus radio at 
29 universities across the country.

'This will facilitate students of our 29 associated universities getting a 
broader perspective of subjects happening across the world,' IGNOU spokesman 
Ravi Mohan told IANS.

In addition, 'Tomorrow Today', the science magazine from DW-TV, will be 
integrated into the schedule of Gyan Darshan, an educational TV channel of 
IGNOU that operates nationwide via satellite and cable.

In return, DW radio has agreed to support IGNOU with training courses for 
community radio operators and journalists. Germany's international broadcaster 
will oversee several intensive courses per year at the School of New Media 
Studies at IGNOU.

'We are happy to have the opportunity to reach out to students throughout 
India,' said Petra Schneider, head of sales and service at DW radio.

[HCDX] Chennai's Big 92.7 fm's RJ big dheena attempts for guinness book of world records

2008-08-24 Thread sakthi vel
BIG 92.7 FM, emphasizing on its greater content offering and its "Tamilian's 
Pride" celebration has now come out with a bigger announcement whereby the 
station will get its RJ, BIG Dheena, hosts "BIG Vanakkam" show on BIG 92.7 FM 
to attempt for Guinness Book of World Records. As everyone in Chennai are aware 
that RJ BIG Dheena has successfully completed 92 hours and 7 minutes RJ 
marathon last August. This August he is taking a big leap and will attempt to 
break Guinness records by continuously RJing for more than 136 hours. It will 
be extremely a proud moment for all the Tamilians not only in Chennai but the 
entire globe as our own Tamil boy RJ BIG Dheena will start his attempt on 21st 
August 2008 be completing this record on the 26th August 2008.

Adhering to the Guinness Book of World Record's rules and regulations, BIG 92.7 
FM has ensured all arrangements required like medical check up for RJ BIG 
Dheena which certifies him to attempt for the record. A team of medical 
practitioners will be present to constantly monitor RJ BIG Dheena's health. 
There will be witnesses present at BIG 92.7 FM studios who will constantly 
monitor RJ BIG Dheena's performance. As per the requirement, the attempt will 
be video graphed and a copy of the same will be sent to Guinness. Even the 
minutest details have been taken care of by BIG 92.7 FM.

This unusual Guinness attempt requires the Radio Jockey to have immense passion 
for Radio, given that it is a true endurance test. Such a marathon has never 
been attempted before in India and hence there are no learning's for RJ BIG 
Dheena to go by. Dheena has been preparing himself for this record both 
physically and mentally and has been undertaking several fitness, yoga and 
meditation classes to ensure the highest levels of patience, commitment and 
focus. These preparations along with prayers to the almightily should give him 
success.

BIG 92.7 FM has put together a greater on-air content, with RJ BIG Dheena 
interacting with celebrities, friends and fans who will be present at BIG 92.7 
FM studios. In terms of on-ground connect, the station will get its other RJs 
like BIG Imsai Arasi, BIG Sangeetha and BIG Balaji to travel to different parts 
of Chennai and connect with the public and take their wishes towards the 
success of the event. RJs will also hold various on-ground contests to make 
things more interactive. BIG 92.7 FM will also carry out a signature campaign 
using its BIG Bus which will allow Chennaites to pass on their messages and 
wishes to Dheena. BIG 92.7 FM's website will broadcast live video of Dheena and 
the blogs and Podcast will carry regular updates on Dheena's performance.

Speaking about his Guinness attempt, RJ BIG Dheena said in a very jovial mood, 
"I am excited and nervous, both at the same time. It is great that me and my 
listeners will be together throughout day and night giving company to each 
other. I know the wishes of the people of Chennai are with me and am all geared 
to complete the record"

Speaking about Dheena's attempt, Mr. PB Ramaswamy, Cluster Director, BIG 92.7 
FM, TamilNadu said, "Dheena has become the most popular RJ in Chennai because 
of his sheer hard work, focus and dedication and I am sure that he will give 
all his attention and energy to attempt and succeed in breaking the record . We 
at BIG 92.7 FM are proud to have him with us and will all be here cheering for 
him with each passing hour. Given his passion and love for Radio, I think BIG 
92.7 FM and Dheena are going to keep the listeners happy"

[HCDX] Reaching Out on Airways: AT8LH

2008-08-24 Thread sakthi vel
Add HAM radio in school syllabus -By N.Arunkumar

Users of amateur radio, also known as, HAM radio, have urged the Centre and 
state to include their hobby in school syllabus. They say this would take the 
technology to youngsters and since amateur radio often turned out to be the 
only mode of communication during disasters, it would help the HAM community to 
reach out more. In the west 70 to 80 persons in a population of one lakh used 
HAM radios but in India only one,in 20 lakh people used them, said Inarapan of 
Kalpakkam, who has been using these radios since 1985. "The investment needed 
for setting up a HAM radio is not huge. The cost of a basic model is as cheap 
as Rs. 500. Most of the people in India are unaware of the advantages in using 
HAM or they are misled by people who do not know about it. These are the main 
reasons for the low number of HAM users in India," he said.

Some of the famous HAM radio users include late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, 
UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, late minister for commerce and industry Murasoli 
Maran and actor Kamal Haasan. During the 1999 Orissa super cyclone and 2004 
tsunami HAM radio was the only mode of communication used for coordinating 
rescue and relief measures. Speaking to Deccan Chronicle on Sunday on the 
sidelines of the International Lighthouse and Lightships Week (ILLW), Ajoy, 
member of the Bangalore Amateur Radio Club said, "CBSE has added HAM as a 
lesson in disaster management subject for classes  8, 9 and 10. The state 
should also follow CBSE and include HAM in their syllabus."

K Rajesh, another HAM user from Chennai said, "HAM is an excellent mode of 
communication for people across the world. This helps us to get in touch with 
persons from different countries, apart from developing our knowledge in 
electronics."

[HCDX] Indian Govt not considering permitting news on private FM channels

2008-08-15 Thread sakthi vel
 The Government is not considering any proposal to permit news broadcasts on 
private FM Radio channels. 

This was stated by Information and Broadcasting secretary Sushma Singh, when 
answering a question on the sidelines of the Second Indian News Television 
Summit organised by indiantelevision.com. 

Singh noted that the government had studied the reports of the Telecom 
Regulatory Authority of India as well as the Ficci in this connection. 
  
  Answering another question, she said the government was considering the 
report on television audience meters received recently from Trai. 

She said the government was under pressure from the judiciary to finalise and 
enforce a Content Code for television broadcasters, but regretted that the one 
finalised by a group of stakeholders from all sectors set up by her ministry 
had not been accepted by the news channels. 

She said all stakeholders would be consulted before any Content Code is 
finalised. Draft codes had been prepared by the News Broadcasters Association 
and the Indian Broadcasting Foundation, but these were now being considered 
with legal experts and stakeholders. 

She said the government was bound by certain orders of the courts and had to 
submit reports on this at regular intervals.

[HCDX] Thousands of new radios let India's believers hear Gospel message

2008-08-09 Thread sakthi vel
International Gospel radio network Trans World Radio has doubled the goal it 
set earlier this year to distribute 2,000 radios to believers in India.
The enthusiastic response to their campaign has allowed them to send 4,000 
radios that can be used by their owners to hear the Gospel.
TWR will distribute the radios through an indigenous network of evangelistic 
house groups across India as part of the Radio Homes project. Members of these 
small groups come together to listen to and discuss Bible teaching over the 
radio with the support of a local coordinator.
TWR has seen huge success in its mission work in India. In a previous project 
spanning the last two decades, TWR planted 650 churches, each one with around a 
hundred members. All of the churches grew up out of listener groups set up by 
TWR workers in villages with no previous Christian witness.
"Thanks to the support of listeners in the UK we hope to carry on spreading the 
Gospel in the most unreached, unchurched areas of the world," the ministry said.
Trans World Radio broadcasts Christian programmes in more than 70 countries and 
225 languages each week.

[HCDX] Misty to air Radio Netherlands content in India

2008-08-04 Thread sakthi vel
Netherlands' public broadcaster Radio Netherlands Worldwide (RNW), has entered 
into a partnership with Radio Misty 94.3FM, the North Bengal and Sikkim FM 
station that will air a variety of RNW music parogrammes ranging from European 
pop charts to classical, jazz and world music as also RNW radio books.  


After a long-term presence in India with short wave and satellite radio 
broadcasts, RNW has now begun to expand its activities in India.

 Radio Misty is the first North Bengal and Sikkim FM station and has a reach of 
80 km. The aim of Radio Misty is to connect the local people with more 
interactive and innovative shows. "This meets the goals of RNW as well, because 
we aim at multicultural interaction between different (local) people and 
cultures in the world. One way of doing this is through programmes that 
interest listeners internationally," says Jan Hoek, RNW's Director General.

Jan Hoek states that the new partnership marks the start of reaching a new 
public via radio stations in India. "We are very pleased with the partnership 
with Radio Misty FM. The swift and decisive way in which we came to this 
arrangement promises a bright future for our cooperation with this dynamic 
station.

Amitabh Srivastava, RNW Country Manager for India says, "This partnership is 
our entry into Indian airspace through radio affiliation and getting the clear 
message that RNW has arrived in India. After getting more then 3000 partners 
globally, we hope more dynamic Indian stations like Misty will be benefiting 
with informative and entertaining programming through us." 

Radio Misty 94.3FM chief executive officer Nishant Mittal says, "It's great 
that we are the first FM station in India to partner with Radio Netherlands 
Worldwide. We hope this new venture between Radio Misty and RNW will open a new 
chapter. It will bring a lot of innovative programmes to people of North Bengal 
and Sikkim. We look forward to share new ideas in programming."

RNW has been the Dutch public service broadcaster in 1947. RNW provides news, 
background and cultural programmes for an international audience in ten 
languages. RNW's programmes and items that will be aired by Radio Misty are 
'EuroHit40', 'European Jazz Stage', 'Live! at the Concertgebouw', 'Radio Books' 
and 'La Salsa es mi Vida'

[HCDX] All India Radio completes 81 years

2008-07-24 Thread sakthi vel
AIR (All India Radio) completed 81 years of operations on Wednesday. Once an 
only player in the country; the pubcaster has had to, with time, face 
competition with the arrival of private radio channels in the country. 

When asked about how the private FM sector has affected AIR's position in the 
country AIR's Deputy Director General - Programming, planning, policy, 
development and commercial G Jayalal said, "AIR is still the number one player 
in the county because of the kind of reach it has. All India Radio reaches 
places where private FM players have not entered yet. Our signal reaches the 
remotest areas in the country."

However, it gives the impression that nothing could dampen the spirits of AIR, 
as the public broadcaster is now headed towards digitalisation of its content 
alongwith revamping its website. Jayalal remarked, "Yes, it is true that we are 
now digitalising our content. Apart from that we have also been working at 
giving a facelift to our website for some months now." 

As a public service broadcaster, AIR had always emphasised on broadcasting 
socially relevant content; content that would spread evangelism. "Since we are 
into public service we have to concentrate on serving the public. So while 
primarily most of our channels have socially relevant content; we also have 
channels like Rainbow that concentrates on music and entertaining listeners. 

But even in channels like Rainbow we try to incorporate as much socially 
relevant content as we can", added Jayalal. While AIR is trying to evolve with 
new technology and content; it would be interesting to watch how in the coming 
days, the radio from the public sector takes its fight ahead against the 
private FM players.

[HCDX] AirCheck Launches Radio Monitoring Service in India

2008-07-09 Thread sakthi vel
AirCheck Launches Radio Monitoring Service in India

AirCheck  India has announced the launch of its radio monitoring service in 
India . Aircheck has analyzed and released airplay of popular songs in the 
first six months of 2008 and has condensed the results into a chart of the 
Twenty Most Popular Songs on Radio in India.

Such charts are a standard media fixture and resource in many media markets 
around the world. But until now, in India airplay charts of this kind were not 
available in a systematic fashion.  

AirCheck India is in a unique position to compile the relevant data, as it 
monitors 69 commercial radio stations in India’s 13 largest cities. Such 
information is of particular interest to the radio stations themselves, to the 
recording industry and to anybody who sells or markets popular music. 

In addition to the Most Popular Songs overall, AirCheck also intends to compile 
charts relating particularly to English language songs, to Bollywood titles and 
to Hindi Pop. AirCheck also already gathers airplay information relating to 
Bengali, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada songs.

Aircheck is a world leader in radio spot and music monitoring, providing 
services for broadcasters,  media research firms, the recording industry and 
advertising agencies. AirCheck India, a subsidiary of US-based RCS Inc., 
provides audio identification services of commercials and songs that are played 
on air. AirCheck India monitors radio stations around the clock, every day of 
the year and provides “same day” verification. The data are made available to 
the subscribers in near real time, on the web .  In addition,  in the United 
States AirCheck – known there as Media Monitors  –  provides services such as 
Newspaper Ad Tracking, TV Spot Monitoring, Spot Ten weekly charts of radio 
advertisers, and also conducts custom research projects. 

AirCheck came into existence because for decades, it was expensive and tedious 
for radio advertisers to verify the number of times a spot played or whether 
the right copy ran on-air. With the patented technology of AirCheck, Sales 
Executives can have details on a particular radio spot or an entire media 
campaign at their fingertips in seconds. The broadcast content recognition 
process used by AirCheck is protected by U.S. Patent 5,437,050 with additional 
patents pending.

RCS (Radio Computing Services) is the world's leading provider of broadcast and 
Webcast software, serving over 9,000 radio stations, TV music channels, cable 
companies, satellite music networks and Internet stations worldwide.. RCS 
serves clients in 100 countries from its 23 offices around the world, providing 
round-the-clock 24/7 global support. In India, RCS serves broadcasters, among 
them many of the recently licensed FM radio stations, through its subsidiary 
RCS (India) Pvt. Ltd., founded in 2002.

[HCDX] SLBC Stopped the MW Tx

2008-06-02 Thread sakthi vel
SLBC Stopped the MW Tx 

>From 01-06-2008, Sri Lankan Broadcasting Corporation
(SLBC) stopped the MW Service on 873 KHz to Indian
Listeners. This frequency mainly used for Tamil
Service. This particular service started on 1925. At
present the only MW Tamil service from SLBC is on 855
KHz for the Sri Lankan Tamil listeners.

Few years back they stopped the evening service on 873
KHz. From January 2008 they reduced the morning
service. According to the SLBC officials, they didn't
get advertisement for that service. They spend three
lahks Rupees per day for transmitt the programme to
South India. Here in Tamil Nadu so many private FM’s
acquired the SLBC clients for the advertisement. This
is also the one of the reason to stopped the well
known historical service.

History of the Organization in Brief 

The history of the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation
dates back to year 1925, when its first pre-cursor,
“Colombo Radio”, was launched on 16th December 1925
using a Medium Wave radio transmitter of one kilowatt
of output power from Welikada, Colombo. Commenced just
03 years after the launch of BBC, Colombo radio was
the first ever radio station in Asia. 

This new medium of mass communication not only became
increasingly popular in the years that followed, but
also quickly evolved into a medium of national
character, which led to the “Radio Service” being
organized as a separate department of the government
of Ceylon (as country was then called) by the ‘call
sign’ ‘Radio Ceylon’ in 1949. Subsequently in 1967,
the Department of Broadcasting was transformed into
its present statutory form of a state corporation by
the Ceylon broadcasting corporation Act. No 37 of 1966
of the parliament of Ceylon, thereby assuring
increased autonomy and flexibility in the operations
of the new organization.

The organization acquired its present name, Sri Lanka
Broadcasting Corporation, with the transition of the
state into the status of “Republic of Sri Lanka” on
22nd May 1972. SLBC has since continued in the same
legal status as a state corporation, and is currently
listed under the scope of the ministry of Information
and Media of the Government of Sri Lanka.

Transition of Domestic Broadcasting from Medium Wave
to FM 

As was the case with many national radio stations with
the same standing several decades ago, SLBC was
relying on medium wave as the primary mode of domestic
broadcasting until the dawn of ‘90s. Some sporadic FM
broadcasts had nevertheless been already introduced at
several transmitting stations more as a means of
‘relaying’ the broadcasts to medium wave transmitting
stations. However, by late ‘80s SLBC was acting in
recognition of the strategic importance of switching
from MW to FM as the primary mode of domestic
broadcasting. Accordingly, in 1993, ‘the FM Stereo
Broadcasting Facility at Colombo’ was commissioned
with the technical assistance of the government of
Japan.

This was followed by the ‘Islandwide FM Development
Project’ that was launched in year 1995. The
objectives of the project were to develop an
Islandwide multi-channel FM stereo broadcast
transmission network and to divest the costly domestic
medium wave transmitting stations, which were
typically broadcasting only one or two programme
channels per transmitting station. By 1999, more than
95% country’s total population was being covered by
SLBC’s FM transmissions with nearly 90% of them
receiving all six nationwide channels.

Programme Channels (Radio Services) currently
maintained by SLBC

SLBC has, throughout its history, been committed to
its mandated task of maintaining the public service
broadcasting in Sri Lanka, by way of providing the
public with the information and entertainment, and
fostering the social, cultural and economic
development of the country, and has maintained this
commitment as the core guiding principle of its
programming policy. Despite the introduction of a
certain amount of commercial programming into its
operations, in order to partially finance its
predominantly public service broadcasting operations,
the respective station genres and the programming
content are carefully designed to be within its
programming policy guidelines. 

At present, SLBC’s Islandwide (domestic) FM network
broadcasts six regular programme channels on a
nationwide basis, and those six ‘national’ channels
account for the major proportion of its domestic
broadcasting. The six channels are,

1. Sinhala Swadeshiya Sevaya’ (Sinhala National
Service)
2. Tamil National Service
3. English Service
4. City FM (Sinhala)
5. Velenda Sevaya’ (Sinhala Commercial Service), and 
6. Thendral (Tamil Commercial Service)

While the first 03 channels are dedicated for public
service broadcasting in the three languages Sinhala,
Tamil and English, the fourth one (City FM) is
maintained as a channel dedicated for the youth. The
last two channels, whilst representing ‘an adult
contemporary’ genre, accommodates a certain amount of
commercial content. Besides the above
