The same applies to DAB - and FM.

To me the processing which is applied *in spades* to all the light
music stations is far more annoying than the low bit rates on DAB. I'd
rather not listen to badly set compressors pumping away.


Thats not a function of the transmission system just how broadcasters
use it!..


Perhaps that's the difference between us. I'm only interested in the sound
I hear in my room. I don't really care how it is unacceptably degraded.
