not very green

I like digital radio but am put off buying a DAB radio because of the vast amount of power they use in comparison to an analogue radio.

It's going to be very difficult to keep to any kind of energy emissions targets when we're encouraging everyone to go out and buy digital tvs and digital radios, both of which consume several times the power of their analogue counterparts.

What is it with the constant Radiohead bashing at El Reg?

I guess it's that good old British attitude of having a go at anyone who dares to be intelligent, innovative and different.
