Radio will do the same with stations programmed a day hours or even minutes in advance by the audience. The distribution system will be over multiple simultaneous platforms with AM-FM broadcasting signals eventually only supplementing total audience participation. Home-grown video will be part of the content mix. By understanding that the Internet is radio’s future the next radio renaissance will come from a generation that is already in that space. What makes our stations our brands into Virtual Neighborhoods that listeners return to day after day are the personalities on the station who create the tenor of the 'hood.

Audio system has art covered
The Australian
module-item –>The designers of the $12000 Sooloos system have revived this forgotten pleasure for the digital age and in the process created a system that is a one-stop purchase for music lovers. It’s the iPod for people who prefer to listen to music at home and don’t care much for either ear buds or the MP3 format. The Sooloos system stores your CD collection (up to 6000 CDs) then jumps online to find the cover art track listings and other meta data that will automatically arrange your collection.

Let’s finally erase this ‘law’ from the statutes
Spiked
Who wants to be the equivalent of a pause button trapped beneath a legislative finger? Recognising this the government hopes to reinstate a version of the Act this time with the correct European notifications built in within three months of the end of the parliamentary recess. If this scenario sounds familiar recall that Part 5 Section 63 of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008 made possession of ‘extreme pornography’ a criminal offence from 26 January this year drawing on minimal debate and a slender selective base of evidence. Rather than rushing through yet more kneejerk legislation wouldn’t it be better to have a grown-up discussion not least on whether scrapping the Act in its entirety would be preferable?There is a lot wrong with the BBFC from government involvement in its senior staff appointments to its double standards on sexually explicit material (3). Do we really need those clunking warnings of content when films are certified such as ‘brief sight of bloody injury and scenes of emotional distress’ (The Time Traveller’s Wife); ‘strong language and moderate fantasy horror’ (Mega Shark vs Giant ctopus) or ‘misuse of fireworks and mild language and violence’ (Aliens in the Attic)? Could we separate parents reading advice on which materials are suitable for children – or better still exercising their own discretion – from adults watching what they want? Why is it that in the adults-only R18 category we see the most cuts applied to 27 per cent of such DVDs in 2007? The list goes on. The idiocies of the BBFC would be less frustrating were they not also the springboard for prosecutions. Why should the subjective decisions of a quango form the basis for fines and incarceration? The bottom line is that criminal law needs to butt out of the cinema and home entertainment industries. If consenting participants in film productions emerge unharmed from the production process then the resulting films would meet a revised forward-looking minimum legal threshold in future.

The Good Enough Revolution: When Cheap and Simple Is Just Fine
Ethiopian Review
Jonathan Berger a professor of music at Stanford University recently completed a six-year study of his students. Every year he asked new arrivals in his class to listen to the same musical excerpts played in a variety of digital formats?from standard MP3s to high-fidelity uncompressed files?and rate their preferences. Every year he reports more and more students preferred the sound of MP3s particularly for rock music. They’ve grown accustomed to what Berger calls the percussive sizzle?aka distortion?found in compressed music. To them that’s what music is supposed to sound like. What has happened with the MP3 format and other Good Enough technologies is that the qualities we value have simply changed. And the change is so profound that the old measures have almost lost their meaning.
