Director General of the BNR Alexander Velev reported 20% growth in terms of listenership in January on December, citing data of an Ipsos Bulgaria research, provided by Nielsen Bulgaria. As of January 1 the BNR hasn’t broadcast music from the Musicautor’s catalogue, as the latter terminated the contract with the public media. According to Mr. Velev, many expected that the BNR’s listenership would ruin in this situation, but exactly the opposite thing happened. A meeting will take place tomorrow at the ministry of culture with the participation of both parties and Mr. Velev expects further development of the subject.
