===The EBU & Community Application Status===
===The EBU & Community Application Status===
The EBU's application is a [[Community TLD|Community Priority Application]]. The EBU is the largest international association of national broadcasters, and it counts the World Broadcasting Unions (WBU), the Association Mondiale des Radiodiffuseurs Communautaires (AMARC) among its supporters. According to its application, it intends to support not only traditional broadcasting but webcasting and streaming audio content as well. Their application asserts that Internet radios are also part of the Radio community, and as such will be acknowledged by .radio TLD, as will podcasters. In all cases certain minimum standards on streaming or updating schedules will apply.

During [[ICANN 44]] in Prague, the EBU requested permission to become a recognized observer in [[ICANN]]'s [[GAC|Governmental Advisory Committee]] (GAC). This move raised questions of conflicts of interest, given that GAC's advice is to be strongly considered by the [[ICANN Board]] during application proceedings.
