Digital radio

I'm going to get a digital radio as a gift for someone and I'm wondering what pitfalls to avoid when making the selection. I'm still at the jargon-busting stage of learning here. They have tumbled to a (semi)reasonable price but does that mean they have also dropped in quality/realibality? I'm attracted by the retro look…

Hi there, I actually just registered now to ask a similar question. My problem was I'm UK based and bought one for a present for someone in Ireland but it picked up absolutely nothing. When I brought it back here to the UK all the radio channels automatically updated themselves with no input from me. I'm looking for one that can pick up BBC Radio 4 but in Ireland.
