T-DAB..


Which industry? Equipment suppliers on both sides of the market are always
delighted with such things.


Equipment suppliers may well be seeing the money this things cost but
I'm referring to the industry that has to pay for them;(...


The commercial radio side just sees it as another expense they can do
without!, whereas the BBC has the licence payer to pay for it all for
them.....


Radio is already at saturation level so few if any *new* listeners would
be provided by a different format. All you might do is poach from another
one.

Who needs DAB anyway;?..
