Atlanta Subway Television System
The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority is set to become the first North American subway system to integrate television and radio feeds into their transit system. Commuters will be able to check out looped news feeds from local affiliates along with three radio stations playing Top 40, R&B, and Jazz hits. Instead of piping the television audio through the on board sound system, riders will tune in to the television audio using an FM transmitter, similar to the radio feeds. MARTA plans to bring in $20 million based on their share of the advertising dollars over the next ten years.

First off, Would someone please delete John’s spam post above? It’s just anoying! Now, this whole subway television thing sound like a great idea, and would occupy passengers while on short (or long) rides. Maybe the money could be used in better ways, though, instead of electronic advancements? Just a thought.
