A report out later today prepared for the government blasts the radio industry and government for "scaring" consumers into an unrealistic timetable for digital switchover, and recommends both an urgent and impartial examination of DAB costs and benefits, and new criteria for a digital switchover.

That's very welcome news. What bugs me is the assumed "need" to switchover at all. DAB is far from perfect and won't be for a long time yet, but it's obvious that the expediency comes from the commercial sector rather than from the end-users.
