15 reasons why mobile Internet is unfit for radio and tv.
Mobile Internet is slow or does not work at all when many people are on the Internet at the same time.
Broadcast networks are hard to crack, they are extremely safe.
Digital broadcast networks are much greener. They use 18 to 200 times less energy.
Mobile Internet is not free: 1 GB now costs approximately 20 Euro per month. With 1Gb you can listen to the radio half a month or watch TV for 3 days (average use is 183 minutes of listening and 191 minutes of watching TV).
Plain Internet and Wi-Fi is not free either.
There is not enough bandwidth available to all Dutch mobile TV or radio to listen / watch.
Broadcasting works everywhere, even at high altitudes, for example in a plane up to 3 km altitude.
Rural areas often lack broadband (wired internet) or LTE (fast mobile internet).
Broadcasting is also available for data distribution or downloading of for example traffic information, for example in cars.
Internet is not always net neutral and Internet providers can express limit or slow down Internet traffic.
Digital Broadcasting uses much less masts: about 80% less than FM, 92% less than 99% less than GSM and LTE.
It is not wise to distribute Radio and TV only via the Internet. In case of emergency you have no backup in emergency situations and right now the Internet will collapse.
Anonymous media consumption is only possible through broadcasting.
It is not economically feasible to TV and radio stations to distribute radio and TV over the Internet.
Mobile TV via mobile Internet is not stable enough to watch TV undisturbed in e.g. car or train.
