Digital TV on Its Way To a Set Near You
Digital TV on Its Way To a Set Near You
Why in the hell is THIS a law?
What bureaucratic nincompoop decided that ALL US TV STATIONS need to broadcast only in digital by 2006?
What possible purpose could this rule serve?
Will programming get better? I doubt it.
Will advertisers get a better return on their money spent? I doubt it?
Will this "help the children"? Uh-uh.
Will it help TV makers sell more expensive HDTV sets? Yep.
I am a decided capitalist folks, as regular readers know. But this is GOV'T forcing the issue.
If the market, if PEOPLE, decide that they need HDTV and prefer digital signals . . . then it would happen. Why do we need a GOV'T RULE requiring such a transition?
Will it help national security? The economy? Whiskey tango . . . ?
