Digital TV
I can no longer find the message, but I'm sure that it was on one of
these two newsgroups within the past few days that I read an allegation that the move from analog to digital for TV broadcasting was a plot to push vast numbers of people to cable or satellite because the digital signal is receivable only over a very small area. I mentioned this allegation to a broadcast engineer yesterday. He told me that in fact many people are not getting good reception of the OTA digital signals and are moving to cable or satellite because many of the expensive HD TVs on the market have appallingly insensitive antenna inputs -- far inferior to the almost-free converter boxes that were distributed over the last couple of years.
