My contention is with the fast-talking complexity of these films, which are aimed at a segment of the population who are not technically savvy and probably do not have access to nor know how to navigate the internet. The TV used as an example on the film broadcast in my area is a fairly new one with multiple jacks. While sets like these should be addressed, I think it would be more helpful to illustrate how to hook a box up to an older set through a 75/300 balun, as well as a set with a simple single 75ohm RF connector. These two sets would properly represent over 90% of the TVs using a converter box.
