So far I have carefully avoided listening to DAB.

Very wise. I've heard a few DAB tuners, and I'm not impressed so far.
Although it may not be the fault of DAB, but of pushing too many
channels in the radio space. R3 certainly sounds the best, but as I
normally only listen to R3 to hear the excellent 'Late Junction', and
I've not heard that on DAB I can't compare. Speech on R4 is noticeably
poorer than on FM, and I don't listen to R1 or R2.

DAB certainly makes sense for car audio though, (but then again, so does
Minidisc, and that never really caught on).
