Not as far as DAB radio is concerned. That is the downside of
digital....


it'll improve though - its not like its incapable of better data rates - and
they can transmit any data, its only a serial stream... (why mpeg layer 2 audio
baffles me though...)


Really?, Better data rates?, is been a downward spiral since it started.
Stations in Mono at 64 K/bits?, not my idea of quality.
MP2 was about the only thing around at the time and one of its great
shortcomings ins the fixed codec's in use;-(
