I omitted the parts where attendees were suggesting various additions to UNAC's Draft Resolution, because I consider them to be procedural goings-on of little interest to a radio audience. The full plenary can be seen on YouTube: https://youtu.be/9OeG00Zbqws?si=sd7g0dm9TtvX8GTy
There are TWO versions of this plenary on the R4A server:
Version 1: The abridged plenary (00:43:38) optimized for RADIO PLAY (-24 LUFS Mp3).
Version 2: The abridged plenary (00:43:38) optimized for INDIVIDUAL USE (-19 LUFS Mp3). Identical content to Version 1, but a louder file encoded at a lower bitrate so it uses less storage space on your device.
