And you think that with DRM you'll get something better?

Certainly can't be any worse than the current predicament.

Some folks don't necessarily consider it a 'predicament'.

Get yourself a nice FM radio or an XM or Sirius setup.

Be happy, and don't screw up someone else's spectrum.

I'm actually quite fond of the current predicament and hope it
continues as long as possible. When I turn on my receiver at night,
there's plenty of stuff to listen do on SW bands, and the program
quality if very high. If shortwave became 'popular' again it would
attract the attention of all sorts of commercial interests who'd drag
shortwave programming into the muck that we currently find television
and mainstream AM radio in.

Long live the marginalization of shortwave!
