A few months ago, the future of RTÉ's digital radio output was placed in question after it was revealed that services like music station 2XM and nostalgia-centred RTÉ Gold would be part of an ongoing review of the public broadcaster's output, concerning expenses, funding and the case for an expanded broadcast charge to replace the current TV licence.
The speculation was cleared up by this morning by the announcement that the digital services, also including RTÉ Radio 1 Extra, dance-focused RTÉ Pulse and kids' station RTÉjr, will continue to broadcast as before on RTÉ's website, via Saorview television, on and smart speakers, as well as apps like RTÉ RadioPlayer.
