There isn't really much point to a tuner from a music point of view (unless you have an incredibly small mp3 collection to put on your Empeg). I'm keen to get one mainly for RDS traffic information - crucial in the area where I live and with the journeys that I have to make. Timely warnings can save hours of wasted time. News and certain sports coverage are sometimes welcome too.

I guess RDS is one of the few advantages that us UK lot have over those in the US. I'm not sure what things are like elsewhere.
