Is 10%-20% discount enough to entice one to trade in their old analogue radios for digital ones?

Not until they increase the quality of DAB broadcast so they are at least as good as FM (they are currently about half the quality at best!)

Probably not worth it at your age, you might get switched off first.

I hope people remember that they will need a DAB car radio as well..

well, I havent; as Steve says, if it ain't broke, you don't need to fix it for a while yet. Who knows, by the time they become mandatory they may have been superseded by the use of intergalactic mind-melds to transmit music.

Thank you 4 for all for being adult enough to give a sensible answer.

As regards the dog, remember your life is not as long as a humans beings.

I happen to have a Pure DAB radio, and I have had it from when they came on the market, and I agree they are not what they are cracked up to be.

Although the sound is crisp and interference free, I still have to position the radio in different positions to receive some stations, and I still cannot receive my local station.
