NTBI Broadcasting Tower Network
The NTBI Broadcasting Tower Network (BTN) is a proposed system for broadcasting music using the Sei Media Formats from radio broadcasting towers to radio and video receivers (desktop models, cars, etc.). Content is queued automatically, pushed to broadcasting towers, and streamed simultaneously among towers to ensure synchronous listening/viewing from anywhere in the grid.
