Christmas is coming and it'll soon be another new year, Honest! 3 weeks yesterday, count 'em!, so enough already of the "I'd have done this differently.... If only they'd.........Why don't they do this that and the other......It's not the real one......" type stuff.
The 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's are done and dusted and now, cor blimey, the 2000's are almost over too !
So, guys and girls what does the future hold for broadcasting, pirate or otherwise?
Be ready. Be very ready.

It will take time - all advances seem to for some reason - but make no mistake, the interwebthingy IS the future.
