I have a DAB radio and I like it. I like it a lot.

I use it every day and quite frankly it knocks spots off hissy old
crackly FM.

Is that a terrible thing for me to say? Well, if you think so, with
my permission, you may print off 30 copies of this article, roll the
copies up like a tube, and shove up your audiophile arse.

I agree. DAB is great unless you happen to be a picky so-and-so who
listens out for every glitch and grumble on the audio.


The audio quality on DAB is absolutely dire. So don't try and suggest I'm
being picky or that I have to listen out for "every glithc and grumble".


It has Virgin Radio in Stereo, and 5 Live in FM quality


FM-quality? I take it you don't read this newsgroup much?


, so do I
care? NO!
If you lot don't like it, go back to FM and stop whining on here! No
one cares! Honest! We don't.
