![]() Sangean and Sony are also part of the DRM consortium. Obviously, they have an interest in selling a new generation of higher priced radios. I don't think any of the Chinese manufacturers are involved with DRM. I don't know the numbers but, there are increasingly more products from Sony that are outsourced to China. I was dismayed when I purchased a second Sony TV, about 4 years after I purchased the same model earlier, only to discover it was made in Mexico. The quality between the two TV sets are obvious. The first one, made in Japan, is superior in every way to the newer made in Mexico model. Sony will be exiting the SW WorldBand radio market. Get one while you still can! Sangean (=Grundig/Eton) are a Taiwan company. All of their radios are made on mainland China in the same factories (I believe, correct me if wrong) as Tecsun which is owned by the Chinese Communist Party - believe it or not! DRM is a another way to extract $$$ from unsuspecting consumers. If I want "digital" radio I'll "subscribe" (remember that - "S.U.B.S.C.R.I.B.E.") to XM or Serius or satellite TV or internet stream... I don't want Ibiquous(sp?) or DRM! |
