Pause/Rewind is a great radio feature. It only annoys me that it took Apple to make it mainstream. DAB (high end) sets have been doing this for a while. Couldn’t agree with you more Dónal.

As a satisfied Sony Walkman user, that's the kind of functionality that'd make me consider an Ipod!

Whether or not business is entitled to this information is a very serious privacy question. Hope that answer helps. Jason.

The ability to brodcast in digital stereo (and mono) on the MW, LW and, for international broadcasters, SW strikes me as a great thing. I've listened to various DRM test transmissions including Radio Luxembourg and the sound quality is great. It can also be used at lower power for local stations and avoids the multiplex question altogether. Any thoughts as a radio professional? Jason. Hey Dusty,

My understanding is that royalty collection agencies have the technology to monitor illegal filesharing/downloading - don't ask me how! If they find an Irish ip address downloading illegally they can write to that persons ISP asking them to stop. If they haven't stopped after 3 warnings the ISP has agreed to cut that person off. Court cases may also follow. I stress that this is my understanding of the issue and I certainly don't have all the in's and out's of how it works. Hope that helps clear things up a bit. Cheers, Dusty Hiya Kyle,
