I wasn't talking about DAB (that works fine). I was talking about 
"Internet radio stations" which stream audio data over the Internet 
using something like Shoutcast.

> Most people want a high bitrate to get better quality audio :P

You'd think not dropping out every few seconds would count as "better 
audio quality". :-P

But then, you'd think they would design Shoutcast so that it receives a 
smoothly playable signal in preference to receiving every byte of data 
before it will play, so......
