Good for the year or few that you have until the analogue signal is switched off... There'll be plenty more tuners like this going cheap!
The Analogue Radio signal is not currently planned for switchoff at all. Analogue TV is due to be off by 2011, but Radio is fine.
As pud1m has already said, DAB is actually going down the pan, with radio stations closing down.
DAB is unlikley to go completely mainstream, as other ways of delivering such as via digital TV, or the internet are becoming more widespread.
So - go for it... no worries about it becoming useless for a very long time yet
