Why ?

Why restrict one's sources to a local transmitter when the Internet
provides global digital radio & tv ?

1. Try getting high quality internet radio in your car without an
expensive
and not-dependable GPRS subscription

2. Try getting the same in your pocket

3. Try getting broadband internet out in rural areas (other than
satellite)

I should imagine all these will be easy in 5 years, making DAB a minor
stopgap while we wait for better things.
