European Broadcast Union adopts FLAC
The FLAC audio compression
project notes the adoption of the FLAC format by the
European Broadcast Union. The EBU's
FAQ
explains:
"The EBU Musipop is an audio file transfer system. All concerts on the Euroradio satellite channels, Ravel & Verdi, are recorded by the EBU Geneva Musipop PC as WAV files. They are subsequently converted into FLAC files and sent via satellite over a dedicated 4.8Mbit/s xtranet channel to member stations. Concerts are stored on your local Musipop PC for up to 2 months (memory with standing) from where they are transferred to your local hard drive playout systems."
