Read this: UK Government under pressure to protect 'lifeline' Freeview TV
Summary: Ofcom will represent the UK's position and a petition sent to the UK Government earlier this year stated unless ministers commit to protecting terrestrial TV further before it, Freeview services may soon be disbanded. The Safeguarding Universality The Future of Broadcast TV and Radio report found almost three-quarters of respondents believe that the partial or total removal of broadcast services in the future risks leaving behind significant portions of the population, with almost half concerned about the potential impact of digital-only services on their broadband bills. - www.thenational.scot

Are you meaning internet only when you say digital only? I think only the rich would be unconcerned about the potential costs.

Chris Bratchell:
Clearly a badly worded article which is talking about the protection of Broadcast DTT and as it mentions Radio, then DAB as well. Whether that includes safeguarding FM isn't clear, but a large proportion of listeners would object to the closure of any FM transmissions until there is equivalent or better coverage from DAB.
