Waste of time. Terrestrial radio should be returned to the people so
they can have unbiased news and public affairs. Something to counter
the propaganda on big media.


I think that would be best served by lots of small community stations.
We have some of those over here in the UK, on the FM band. However DRM+
would allow more such stations to fin into the FM band, as it uses a
narrower bandwidth than FM, and can work at lower signal levels.

But you can't build a DRM receiver for a dollar. In the USA there are 2
or 3 radios per citizen.

Not at the moment, but as the price of microelectronics goes down, it
could end up being cheap enough. OK perhaps 1 dollar might never be
possible, but cheap enough.

Aren't there patent fees involved, for Fraunhaufer and Coding
Technologies, etc.


There are fees for decoding of aac+, but as far as I understand it, it's
a matter of pennies per receiver.
