Abstract: Progress in technology such as digitalisation and the convergence of media will revolutionize the media industry and the nature and mission of public broadcasting. From an economic point of view, a public, state-sponsored broadcaster is not needed; especially in a changing media landscape which is about to bring fiercer competition and broader diversity of opinion. Nonetheless, from a pragmatic and political point of view, it is clear that state-aided broadcasting in Germany will not disappear, so the least economists can do is to offer ideas on how to make public broadcasting fit the age of digital media and how to make public intervention as efficient as possible. This paper suggests ideas on how to make public broadcasting more efficient in the age of digitalisation.
