DAB sounds worse than FM wrote:
Your usual technique of resorting to personal abuse about anyone who
doesn't take your every word as gospel noted. Oh so common with religious
bigots of any denomination. And you certainly treat your obsession as a
crusade.


Bull****. I was simply giving my honest opinion about your level of
intelligence!

Your idea of honesty is very different from most.


Sadly your spin on the situation is based on specifications and
hindsight.


The BBC R&D engineers were basoically screaming about how good AAC was
compared to MP2 from 1996 onwards. Please don't try to tell me that
there wasn't time to adopt AAC, because there was.

I am telling you. To change the spec at that late date would have been a
nonsense.


And takes no account of those who may find DAB under certain conditions
quite satisfactory.


A system shouldn't be designed jsut to cater for mediocrity.

Like FM, you mean? Which is perfectly capable of giving dreadful results.
