CLARET, France - Sept. 3, 2010 - NETIA today announced that RTL Radio has become the first French national radio broadcaster to deploy the Radio-Assist^TM 8 digital audio software suite. This latest release of Radio-Assist^TM addresses the entire RTL radio production workflow, providing tools for preparing and airing program audio, news, music, jingles, and commercials. The Radio-Assist^TM architecture and operating system make it the ideal solution for centralizing and automating RTL's 24/7 operations, and the broadcaster has currently installed the software in nearly 300 workstations.

With this latest version of Radio-Assist^TM 8, RTL enjoys the benefit of many new features.
