[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1079380, member: 330868"] In reality I think we will probably end up with a 5G broadcast system being the direct replacement for DVB-T/DVB-T2/DAB+ in the future. It's already been/being trialled by the BR in Bavaria and the BBC in the Shetland Islands for BBC radio. That would fit in with the spectrum becoming 5G spectrum rather than specifically terrestrial broadcast spectrum. From what I understand it basically works like a hybrid broadast-IP multicast kind of system where the equivalent of a web stream is provided on a specific bit of spectrum to all users like current digital TV/radio broadcasts. I believe the BBC version used a special version of the iPlayer to play the streams. Presumably if the signals are strong like current mobile phone networks in a typical environment, it'll go the way of having TVs with built-in 5G tuners that don't need an external aerial. Whether the part of the network that provides the live TV/radio signals is free or provided through a paid mobile phone network is something I guess we'll have to wait and see! By that point maybe the only live stuff will be news and sport on television. [/QUOTE]
