Ostdeutscher Rundfunk Brandenburg (ORB – ''East German Broadcasting Brandenburg''), based in Potsdam, was the public broadcaster for the German federal state of Brandenburg from 12 October 1991 until 30 April 2003. It was a member organization of the consortium of public-law broadcasting organizations in Germany, ARD. ORB merged with the Berlin public broadcaster Sender Freies Berlin (SFB) on 1 May 2003 to form Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (RBB). ==History== Following German reunification, ARD expanded its membership to include public broadcasters in the territory of the former German Democratic Republic (GDR). Four public-broadcasting organizations replaced those of the former GDR: the already existing Hamburg-based Norddeutscher Rundfunk in the north; the already existing West Berlin-based SFB, now covering all of the city; the new Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk for the states of Thuringia, Saxony, and Saxony-Anhalt; and the new Ostdeutscher Rundfunk Brandenburg. Created on 12 October 1991, ORB joined ARD on 27 November and formally took over from the former ''Rundfunk der DDR'' on 1 January 1992. ORB had originally planned to call itself Ostdeutscher Rundfunk (ODR - ''East German Broadcasting'') on the pattern of the already existing Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR - ''North German Broadcasting''), Süddeutscher Rundfunk (SDR - ''South German Broadcasting''), and Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR - ''West German Broadcasting''). However, faced with the criticism that the designation ODR could be taken as implying that the new organization covered the whole of the former "East Germany", a more specific name was chosen in the autumn of 1991. ORB television was broadcast from the former studios of the official GDR film company, Deutsche Film AG, whilst the radio services originated in the ''Funkhaus Nalepastraße'', the former headquarters of the GDR's broadcasting service. In 1995 the Ostdeutscher Rundfunk Brandenburg in coalition with the Sender Freies Berlin started their Internet radio streaming service ''Info-Radio on Demand''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internetradio )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ostdeutscher Rundfunk Brandenburg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
