Digital Courier Sets New Rates for Large Radio Groups

Vancouver, Canada. Digital Courier International has announced a new reduced rate structure for large radio station groups using their network audio and data delivery service.

The new rate structure will be available only to groups whose entire chain of stations is on the DCI network. DCI positions its inter-group communication services as a faster, cheaper way for station groups to exchange programming elements and voice talent, compared to traditional dub and ship methods.

“Radio group services are one of the primary focuses of DCI,” says President Al Kozak of the new offering. “We plan to extend our group services to include centralized sales and accounting features, and information systems for station groups.”

DCI claims 3500 stations already subscribing, which means that most station groups already have some outlets on the network. With approximately 400 stations coming on board each month, the company expects to reach the 4,500 mark before year-end.

The new pricing varies according to chosen speed of delivery:

First 2 Minutes Each Additional Minute
Service Local Regional National Local Regional National
One Hour $15 $25 $25 $5 $8 $8
Same Day $9 $10 $10 $3 $4 $4
Overnight $6 $9 $9 $1 $3 $3
