peterloohoo··on Norway to switch off FM in 2017
I have read the article. Nowhere does it claim that the reason for this is that FM is simply "old". They believe that DAB is better for particular reasons - choice, they want to reclaim the bandwidth etc. You disagree with that, but it has nothing to do with simply the age of FM.

Nobody has argued that the reason they want to replace FM is that it is old. So why challenge that argument?

"Just because they are "old" doesn't mean there is something better."

Nobody has claimed this, so why are you arguing against it? You've pretended someone has claimed something, and then you argue against that rather than the actual arguments made. This is called a 'straw-man'.

You're like a lunatic, arguing against an imaginary person.
