Call me paranoid but it seems that no one is reading between the lines on this " switch to digital tv " thing.The reason they say they are making everyone switch is because it will open the airwaves for emergency radio signals.If you ask me , I think this is just another way for them to both censor and monitor what the general population watches on TV.I have cable, But will also keep my rabbit ears. ANYONE IN HERE REMEMBER THAT MOVIE V? and the broadcasts he made warning the public?...

It's not just February 2009, February 17, 2009. One day after the new Chevy Camaro hits showrooms in US.

@Cranceco But all of the governments are pretty much in agreement: Switch to DTV sometime in the future.

Get analog tv to come back they only switched to digital to get your money

TV must go back to analog the switch to digital did not work out

[Cranceco]

I don't think this change will be bad, because I will be in all the world, and I think that I would be able to see more chanels of other countries that I can watch now.

Here in Colombia, the locals networks are broadcasting this too.

[Cranceco]

That's completely stupid, I mean, ALL the CHANELS are not from USA, so the goverment can't control all the Tv, then you can change to another chanel from... Europe by Example.

[Cranceco]

But I will be the same?, I mean, the local services will have an offert like Directv?

[Cranceco]

Hey, you're who has been brain wash, the digital Tv is better than the Normal Tv.

Y esa mierda de que el gobierno no se interesa, es basura, si no fuera asi...

entonces porque hacen hospitales, tienen la policia.

Ademas, a las compañias les interesa nuestro entretenimiento, porque eso les generaria mas ingresos.

You're a completely Asshole

(Y eso que no soy de USA)

just get converter boxes for you locals! Save $5 a month!! Plus you get more locals then the satellite! Why pay for local channels its not worth!! You will save $60 a year if you switch out of locals on satellite and just get a converter box! I am currently doing this right now saving $60 a year! I have directv and forget about paying for locals! Save money and dont pay the satellite company extra for locals!!

These converter boxes are also ideal if you have satellite service with analog tvs. Instead of paying the satellite company (directv or dishnetwork).

no no no

Wrong. The government began in the late 20th century not giving a crap about the common man. They don't give a crap about our enjoyment. They want to brainwash us. That's the most accurate fact.
