A 50 year broadcast standard being killed off for what???
I wonder if watching the evening news, reruns of MASH, Seinfeld, Frasier, Leave It To Beaver, The Beverly Hillbillies, Hannah Montana, The Simpsons, King of the Hill and hundreds of other programs, are really going to be better in a digital format. I have my doubts. Who the hell wants to watch the evening news with a picture with so much detail that one can see the brushmarks on the talking heads makeup?
Does anyone remember the names of our celebrated congressional members who, in the mid 90's went to Japan and were astonished that we here in the US of A did not have high definition TV like was being demonstrated in Japan. IIRC these buzzards came back to the US and really got the ball rolling for high def. television.
