Abstract:
The radio broadcasting industry had less innovation pressure compared to the music industry over the last years. But in the meantime, broadcasting agencies are increasingly competing with new music streaming services for listeners' limited attention and time. Radio broadcasting agencies react by building up personalized radio next to their linear playout, but have to face the difficulty that spoken word radio recommendation is more complex than music recommendation due to the heterogeneity of contents. We depict the requirements for radio recommendation, present the current data situation of broadcasters and a rough sketch of an architecture for a radio recommender system.
