Default Trunking

I've been into SW listening for a few years and am more or less new to
scanning. I have a non trunking
scanner. I'm beginning to get the feeling that I'm missing a lot by not
listening with a trunked unit.
I really don't understand trunking and the google results I got didn't help
much.
Could someone please explain to me trunking transmissions, a trunking
receiver and weather it's really
worth it to have a trunking receiver to get in on the listening action.
Also, with most things already or about to go digital, is it really worth it
to invest in a trunking
reveiver? Seems to me that digital will kill the casual listener.
Maybe I'm wrong. That's why I request your input.

TIA for your patience with my questions.
