Question

What do you think about the change in 2009 to all digital tv?

Answer 1

I think the government is in cahoots with the electronics, cable, and satelite tv industry, and they want to trick everyone into thinking they need to run out and buy a new tv and subscribe to cable or satelite or they will not have tv next year.  The fact is, all you need is a $50 converter box ($40 of which can be paid for with the gov't coupon, but the advertising tends to allude to you losing your signal without getting cable, etc.

Answer 2

Not very many people have analog tv anymore so it won't be a huge change or hassle. But at least it means getting rid of those old ugly antennas!

Answer 3

Im ok with it because i have digital tv, but i dont think it should be forced onto anyone. I mean even with the coupons I'm sure some people couldn't afford to by the converter boxes.

Answer 4

i think its lame theyre making us buy this converter box
