  • Media Nations 2019
    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

  • RIG Response to the BBC Trust Review of the BBC's National Radio
    RIG response to The BBC Trust Review of the BBC’s national radio stations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales RIG response to the BBC Trust Review of the BBC’s national radio stations in Wales About RIG The Radio Independents Group is the trade association for independent radio and audio producers in the UK. RIG has over 100 member companies, and rough estimates put the overall value of the sector at over £25m1. RIG has around 30 member companies based in Wales, making audio content for the BBC and commercial companies both in English and Welsh. RIG also has 6 members in Scotland. Overall comment on the Trust Review RIG is pleased to see the BBC Trust carrying out this review into Nations Radio. We passionately believe in the ability of a thriving independent production sector to increase the amount of innovation, ideas and talent available to the licence fee payer. This applies as much to Nations radio as it does to the major networks. For example one part of Wales is not the same as another and independent producers, based around that nation, can play a major part in sharing voices and perspectives from all of those areas. For the purposes of this consultation, RIG canvassed its members in both Wales and Scotland – there are currently very few producers making audio independently in Northern Ireland. On this occasion there have been no major comments to make about BBC Nations Radio in Scotland. Therefore the response is concentrated on BBC Radio Wales and Radio Cymru. We have sought to keep as closely to the remit of the questions as possible.

  • Digital One’S Response to the Ofcom Consultation “Future Pricing of Spectrum Used for Terrestrial Broadcasting”
    Digital One’s Response to the Ofcom Consultation “Future pricing of spectrum used for terrestrial broadcasting” 1. Digital One operates the UK’s only national commercial DAB digital radio multiplex. Its shareholders are GCap Media (63%) and Arqiva (37%). Digital One’s transmission network (which is operated by Arqiva) is the world’s biggest DAB digital radio network with coverage well in excess of 85% of the British population. Digital One’s multiplex broadcasts: - the three INRs (Classic FM, Virgin Radio and talkSPORT); - four digital-only national stations (Capital Life, Core, Oneword and Planet Rock) with a further station being launched in the next few months; - TV channels and an Electronic Programme Guide broadcast as part of BT Movio. Digital One is a leading stakeholder in the UK’s Digital Radio Development Bureau and the WorldDAB Forum (which is responsible for the DAB digital radio standard and works to coordinate the international roll-out of Eureka 147 based technologies). 2. Digital One is licensed under the 1996 Broadcasting Act, and has licence obligations which help deliver public policy benefits. These limit Digital One’s ability to use the spectrum it has been allocated in the most efficient manner (in economic terms). For example: - the obligation to operate a transmitter network which delivers high population coverage; - the obligation (at the direction of the Secretary of State for the Department of Culture, Media and Sport) to carry the three INRs and to offer each INR an amount of capacity dictated by the regulator;

    Berry, Richard (2013) Radio with pictures: Radio visualization in BBC national radio. The Radio Journal, 11 (2). pp. 169-184. ISSN 1476-4504 Downloaded from: http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/id/eprint/5210/ Usage guidelines Please refer to the usage guidelines at http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/policies.html or alternatively contact [email protected]. Radio with Pictures: Radio Visualisation in BBC National Radio Richard Berry University of Sunderland Abstract. Radio has always had pictures. The ones the listener created in their own minds and this is, most of us agree, one of the medium's greatest strengths. However, radio is increasingly consumed on a digital platform (such as DAB Radio, Digital TV, a mobile device or a computer) on devices with screens, rather than a dial. This creates a problem for radio because when we look at the device we are listening to we see a screen that often lacks rich content. The process of Radio Visualisation is about filling this space. This papers focus, though, is the other ways in which radio is visualising itself online in a process that deploys transmedia storytelling techniques that build relationships with the audience, builds brands and helps broadcasters to tell stories in ways never before possible. In the spring of 2011 2.84 million British TV viewers watched a radio programme on their Televisions. They were tuning in via interactive television (or the 'red button') services to watch the BBC Radio One breakfast presenter Chris Moyles attempt to break a world record for the longest radio programme. The BBC installed a series of fixed cameras in the programme’s regular studio at the BBC's Yalding House studios, with added 'roving' cameras to allow the presenters to broadcast from other parts of the building and a cafe across the street.
