Chinese government considering adopting DAB+


1st October 2007

According to the subscription-based interfax.cn website, the Chinese government is considering adopting DAB+:

 

"The Chinese government is considering adopting the Digital Audio Broadcasting Plus (DAB+) standard as the national standard for digital audio transmission, an official with a Shanghai-based fables [sic] semiconductor company said during the Red Herring Asia 100 conference over the weekend."

 

It goes without saying that if a country with a population as big as China's adopts DAB+ as its national digital radio standard that would be excellent news for DAB+ because of the potential sales volume.
