I quite agree but would you say this is a result of the low bit rate the
bbc uses or is an indication of the inherent superiority of analogue vs
digital sound reproduction?

Think you'll find that pretty well all of the chain from microphone to
transmitter is digital these days.

It's a very sad fact that it's all to easy to mess up a perfectly good
digital signal by simply reducing the data rate at the point of
transmission. They've done that with both radio and TV.

And don't even get me started on phones... ;-)
