Remember that the bit rates of the radio stations on Freeview, digital
satellite and cable are higher than on DAB, so the audio quality is also
higher than on DAB.

For archiving digital radio the best thing you can get is a Freeview or
digital satellite PC card, because they stream the received MPEG
bitstream directly to your hard drive.
