Yes, it will be obsolete after February 2009 in the USA.

I have several MTS decoders: Recoton FREDs, an NEC, maybe another one or two. Some versions of the FRED could decode stereo TV sound without even connecting to the TV set; they used a probe on a wire that picked up the 4.5 MHz sound IF from the back area of the TV set.
