Just curious: DVB radio capture

I agree but if there is nowhere to host the tools, and lots of torrent and p2p sites go away, then only a few with the knowledge to design decryption tools will be able to break it.

International readers, please don't take this to mean that the BBC radio channels are ONLY on satellite broadcasts; in the UK itself, BBC radio can be received in at least 5 different ways;

Traditional FM broadcasting
DAB - Digital Radio Broadcasting
Satellite - from the European Astra Satellite
Freeview - Terrestrial Digital Broadcasting - from ground-based transmitters
Webcasting via www.bbc.co.uk

As you'd expect, all have different qualities.

Your Mileage May Vary. I just found out about that myself not too long ago.

LOL, it's obvious. But regarding Astra: there are only news channels, so usless. Even if there is any music, they broadcast in MP2 62 - 160 kbps
