How about something like  "Whatever happened to digital radio?".

Have you ever wondered how your car's GPS knows about the local traffic
conditions? Or how that FM radio you won in last years raffle knows what
song is playing? There's a huge amount of digital radio out there that is
both obvious and not so obvious.

We'll recap various digital radio/TV (not Internet) methods. Look at its
successes (and failures!) and look at various ways we can improve our data
capture. Subtitles will be available on BBC CeeFAX page 888.
