DRM+DAB Receivers Have HE AAC Decoders in Them!

All DRM receiver have to have an HE AAC decoder in them, so sending an
HE AAC stream through a DAB data channel and redirecting it in the
receiver to the HE AAC decoder solves DAB's problem.

Radioscape's new DRM+DAB+FM module could easily do this (because it's
software), and it is pin-compatible with all current DAB receivers that
use Radioscape modules, thus receivers will be available very soon.
Moreover, with DRM and WorldDAB co-operating then you'd expect more
chipsets to become available to support DAB+DRM.

How I missed this I don't really know - probably arguing about DVB-H vs
DMB and Croiset's ludicrous claims about DVB-H.

I can feel a new web page coming on...
