The Australian Broadcasting Company was a consortium of entertainment interests which was formed in 1929 to supply radio programs to the Australian radio market.
Funding was supplied through licenses rather than through advertising. However, license fee income was low, jeopardizing its viability.
In 1932, the Australian Government nationalised the company through the Australian Broadcasting Commission Act (1932) and it became the Australian Broadcasting Commission.
