You would still be able to listen to audio only services, just as any cable or DBS subscriber here in the U.S. gets dozens of channels of audio service. In case you had not noticed, Radio and TV no longer hold a monopoly on information/entertainment. The same broadcast digital infrastructure can be used to deliver cached VOD movie services and IP multicasts of web sites and other information services. Why do we discriminate in favor of the interests of broadcasters?
