News Summary:

SRG SSR agreed to align its approach to advertisement viewing on catch-up services with that of commercial rivals. In the first half of 2024, despite switching off its FM radio stations, SRG SSR maintained the largest market share (53%) across all Swiss language regions. Although total radio reach decreased, this was mainly due to the FM shutdown. A shift in audience behavior followed the decision to switch off FM transmitters at the end of 2024, transitioning to DAB+ and IP, but overall radio listening did not decline. SRG SSR and Eutelsat Group renewed their multi-year capacity agreement, ensuring continued broadcast of SRG SSR's HD television channels and radio stations to viewers outside terrestrial reception areas. For the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest, SRG SSR will again internally select its participant, returning to its previous method after hosting the 2025 contest.
