[quote comment="66481"]This helps the economy how?[/quote]
A couple of ways (in theory).
1. Everyone has to get a digital TV or buy a converter box. KaChing
2. More available channels so more content so many many more ad sales. Kaching, Kaching, Kaching
3. Government can license more frequencies to their big contibuters (Faux, Corporal Electric, Dizzney, etc.) so the pols can collect more domnations form the grateful monopolists. :w00t: :whistle: :wink: :ninja:
We have 3 TV,s, the oldest we bought back in the late 90′s, then we got a 36 inch screen around like in 2002 which is what we are using now, and a 36 inch that our son gave us when he’ bought a new one this year. Its a 2004 I think, we haven’t hooked it up but it works fine. I really don’t understand anything about what happen after the countdown but between the three TV’s we may find one that will still work I hope. If not I get to bust out all three screens horaaay!!! Something I have always wanted to do in my secret life. I’ll polish my sledge hammer with the highest of hopes. :w00t:
