All radio in the UK will be switched to digital by 2015. No more FM. No more AM. New cars are not going to be forced to have updated radios until 2013. The commentator suggested there will be tiny DAB (Digital Audio Band) boxes you plug in to your car's power and it will transmit digital radio on a local FM band to your car's old crappy radio to cover the gap.
I wish we had some kind of DAB in the U. S.. It is far better quality. We have some kind of HD FM here, but there are no hand held receivers that I can find. It wont matter soon because my phone has some music capabilities and I hear that some real choice is on the horizon that will look something like satellite radio only much cheaper. Bring it on.
