It's different than a physical radio because a physical radio can get more than just one station. Think about how far you'd get making a radio that got just one station and marketing it as the "Z107" radio or the "ABC" radio.
The CBC is right. They're embarrasing themselves but they're right. Just because they have the right to take their ball and go home doesn't mean they'll make many friends in the neighborhood doing so.

- jarek 15y agoI'm not convinced the Soviet datapoint is useful here, considering that both of the important issues here (charging for a device/app that accesses content owned by another entity and use of that entity's trade marks) would have been vastly different in the USSR system, where both the device manufacturer and the broadcaster were part of the state.
