The BBC is continually pushing the envelope on new technologies — the latest intriguing development is the quasi-public organization’s initiative to allow listeners to create their own radio stations using P2P technology. The planned service has a working name of MyBBCRadio and is a part of the BBC’s iPlayer, which also delivers seven days of free BBC TV on-demand.
BBC head Mark Thompson announced the creation of the new service at a conference yesterday.
Thompson said MyBBCRadio would use peer-to-peer technology to provide “thousands, ultimately millions, of individual radio services created by audiences themselves”.
