I'd like the idea of them supplying a feed, but then DAB is simply a transmission medium, they'd respond by saying they can easily provide these stations as audio channels on their existing TV line-up. If the real issue was bandwidth, you can bet FM qould have been lost the minute digital TV was proposed.... but they didn't. The Music Choice channels are still there, blasting out Stereo silence on 8 frequencies. How daft is that? As its not revenue earning, it's a low priority, but I'd settle for the removal of the MCEblanks and fixing the ones that are supposed to be there, and stop saying it's 'unsupported'. Which is a crass reaction to 'I don't know what you're talking about, or I've never heard of it).
