put up with it on my PC's freeview receiver, but I still find myself
wandering into the kitchen to tune in on the analogue set.
I think I'm a bit strange.
IIRC subjective quality tests have shown that poor quality audio causes
a reduction in reported *video* quality of one point on the CCIR 5-point
subjective quality scale. I can probably dig out a reference if
anyone's sufficiently interested. Which suggests that people in general
are even weirder than you think that you are, if that's any comfort. :-)
