BLM Bavaria to decide on Audio Strategy 2025 in December
The Media Council of the Bavarian regulatory authority for new media (BLM) wants to decide on the Audio Strategy 2025 in its meeting on 7 December 2023. The audio strategy is a model developed by the BLM which orients the upcoming migration from FM to DAB+ to milestones of market development and not to a fixed switchover date. Dr. Thorsten Schmiege, President of the BLM: "The figures presented in the audio strategy are clear. Too early or too late migration would lead to a loss of diversity - but timely migration means maintaining local radio diversity, especially in rural areas. That's why with the Audio Strategy 2025 we are relying on a solidarity model that takes large and small stations along. I am convinced that the industry must act together and focus on DAB+ in terms of distribution and financing."
