The reason they are making us go Digital is because several years ago when Digital TV was in the works no one wanted to make a Digital TV because there was no Digital TV service I mean why would you pay millions of dollars to broadcast DTV if no one had a TV to watch it same with why make a TV that no one is broadcasting on it. So they made it so they had to broadcas DTV so people would make TV. If they every want something like Hybrids or Electric cars to become the norm they will have todo the same thing for them. Its also kinda the reason why Wimax wont make it why put up service if no one has the device and why make the device if there is no service. Nokia tried the N810 Wimax and look how long it lasted.
