That doesn't help much if your country has shut down FM broadcasting though.
I didn't even know that DAB exists.
It would be very, very hard to make old and rural people switch in my country. We still have analog tv for the same reason. 🇨🇱

Shutting down FM broadcasting doesn't mean shutting down radio; if you read the link, you'll see that DAB is taking it's place in those places.
Thanks for clarifying, I didn't understand that in the article.
wtf
Well, that's surely something to consider, but it's still not a fact. I wouldn't even expect that to happen in my country any time soon. I know radio is struggling right now, but I also know I can stream live FM radio stations from all over the world.
In any case, if DAB can replace FM even for emergency use, that's what I'd want in my phone.
