That statement suggests you think all analogue is perfect? Otherwise why
comment that all digital is not necessarily the same? Or have you been in
Currys recently? ;-)


Dave an I go back a long way debating this sort of thing. In my ever so
humble opinion I think that digital broadcasting could have been done
better.


Every system ever could be bettered. AM radio had its quality halved at a
stroke in the '70s.

Its now a screwed up outdated system for radio thats bloody useless for
most all applications, and the TV system thats gone for all Quantity and
sod the quality.


TV has always had variable quality. Depends on the source material. And
radio too. Or perhaps you don't remember just how bad some pop 45s sounded?

And yes I've been in Curry's and Vomit as well .. and no I wouldn't by
anything from either of those cesspits...


I just wondered since you imply that all digital should by nature be good.
Does your mobile phone give you good audio quality? Mine doesn't.
