I'd take the "better sound quality" claims with a grain of salt, absent information on codec and bitrates.

- Arnt 9y agoIt's not about the codec or bitrate, it's about error recovery. The scenic Norwegian mountains are not kind to radio transmission. FM fidelity was achieved by building one transmission tower per 2000 inhabitants. At a guess, FM is really being switched off because noone wants to pay for all those transmitters any more.
