Radio Upgrade" [sic] at the Culture, Media & Sport Select Committee:

Paul Eaton, Head of Radio, Arqiva:

DAB provides "a better quality listening experience"

And in Digital Radio UK's factsheet entitled "A briefing on the
digital radio upgrade":

"Consumers will enjoy better sound"

and

"Digital radio also offers better sound quality"

PURE, UNADULTERATED LIES.

Spot on Steve.

Steve tells it like it is.
