Exactly. Thanks to the "Music Mafia" (and their lawyers) a useful technology
is shot down in flames. Personally, I can't see what they're so worried about-
the audio quality on the digital satellite channels I've sampled at various
stores sounds about like a 96Kbps MP3 file... it's "just listenable". Not even
close to "CD Quality".
