This accessible, incisive and well-structured book cleverly summarizes and synthesizes key debates around 'broadcasting' in a digital age., Digital Broadcasting provides a much needed comprehensive overview of a rapidly evolving television landscape. Finally, here is a book that lucidly explains the technical and economic aspects of digital broadcasting, but also pays attention to the changing dynamics between producers, audiences and the industry. Jo Pierson and Joke Bauwens have a keen eye for complexity but are doing students (and lecturers) a great service by providing so many clarifying examples. I greatly recommend this books to all students in media and communication., "A concise but wide-ranging introduction to the changes in broadcasting associated with digitization ...

Synopsis
Digital Broadcasting presents an introduction to how the classic notion of 'broadcasting' has evolved and is being reinterpreted in an age of digitization and convergence. The book argues that 'digital broadcasting' is not a contradiction in terms, but--on the contrary--both terms presuppose and need each other. Drawing upon an interdisciplinary and international field of research and theory, it looks at current developments in television and radio broadcasting on the level of regulation and policy, industries and economics, production and content, and audience and consumption practices., Digital Broadcasting presents an introduction to how the classic notion of 'broadcasting' has evolved and is being reinterpreted in an age of digitization and convergence.

It also looks at current developments in television and radio broadcasting on the level of regulation and policy, industries and economics, production and content, and consumption and use practices.

- _***s (6)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseWhen I'd originally placed this order, I had accidentally put in the wrong shipping address. However, the seller was more than helpful, and the CD arrived!! The packaging was wide open when it arrived, but luckily nothing was damaged. Additionally, there was nothing protective on the CD, so that open package made me feel kind of nervous. Otherwise, absolutely great! The customer service was awesome, and the product was as described.
- r***w (229)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem was lost in delivery- but after some communication, seller was understanding and provided a refund. I ordered another and had it sent elsewhere. My main issue was that it felt as if I was getting automated responses at first!! Please have humans review human inquiries!! It was painstaking explaining the situation to an A.I. who only repeats unhelpful replies. Thanks again!! Otherwise. Great price! Great seller!
- e***r (331)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough I received the incorrect book with my order (that had a title close to what I had ordered), AlibrisBooks apologized, said they could not re-send the book, and refunded my money and told me to keep the book that I had received, and either donate it or give it away, so I gave it to someone. That was very kind on their part to do that, and I would highly recommend them. Mistakes happen I get that.
