The Spanish radio: an analogical business in the digital era

In the 1980s, radio and television travelled a parallel path in the development of Spanish communications system and multimedia groups. This trend has been broken with the introduction of digital radio: whereas this clings to its traditional analogue business model, television changes in order to adapt to new media. In a scenario where governments show no interest in the development of digital technology and operators do not offer a project of future, Spanish radio is in danger of being isolated from and relegated to a purely marginal role.
