Audio technology has never stood still, newer and better ways to deliver audio are constantly being developed. While some legacy audio delivery systems, like AM and FM radio, survive and continue to evolve, others, like cassette tapes and even compact discs, go by the wayside. This session will include presentations focusing on where audio delivery is headed in the internet age and what the proliferation of mobile broadband in particular is doing to increase competition and opportunities for audio service providers. Also to be discussed is the advent of object-based audio formats and the new opportunities available to broadcasters from smart speakers and hybrid (over-the-air plus mobile broadband) radio platforms.
