Depends what you want. There is a lot of stations on DAB that are not available on FM. For the car or just listening whilst in the kitchen/doing something else or you have a specific station that is DAB only then yes I would say they are worth it. If you want to sit and listen to music as a hobby then no.

It sort of equates to the same situation with stored music. We spent years with vinyl then CD came along and we were all told how much better it was. In the whole it is however a top vinyl system will easily blow away a cheap CD system. Then the world went MP3 mad. Sound quality of the vast majority of MP3s is far poorer than CD but because we can now have music collections a size that would be unheard of 10 years ago we put up with it.

At the end of the day you pays your money........
