Post: Why DAB/DRM?

Why DAB/DRM? 

In That Digital Britain report in full

Who has any convincing argument for DAB (FM) and DRM (AM)?

The radios are now, more expensive and consume more power, and most people don't have one. The channels on DAB have drop to a pitiful number and it appears an expense that no commercial broadcaster is interested in.

And don't get me started in those piss-poor annoying adverts that FM is hard to tune (just what sort of morons are we supposed to be?) or that it offers "digital quality" sound (implying CD, but of course often poorer than crap MP3 ripped tracks).

Flogging a dead here there :(

Pirates, as they will rule FM when the legitimate broadcasters are pused to DAB (and probably do a better job).
