It's going to happen in the first place because in the upcoming years no one will be using it anyway, but why not do it now to get it over with now?
Wow, there are SO many things wrong with that statement/question.

First off, a LOT of people are still using analog antenna TV. If they wanted/could afford cable/digital services, then they would have bought them. But they don't/can't, so they use antenna. There is absolutely nothing wrong with OTA television as it is. It has satisfied people for years. There needs to be some medium of communication, where the consumer has the ultimate choice in how it's delivered. The government has no right to step in and demand that everyone switch to digital OTA.

And contrary to what people are led to believe, digital is not always better than analog forms of media. Take MP3's for example...

Almighty TiVo, We thank you for all the gifts you have given us. The power to freeze live TV to go take a leak is nothing short of god-like. And let's not forget fast-forwarding through commercials. It seems greedy to ask anything more from you, o magic box, but if you malfunction and miss the Super Bowl, we will destroy you in the alley with baseball bats.

Sorry I didn't make myself clear on that, I meant analog OTA. OTA is a great thing, i've used it quite a few times, so I totally get you on that point.

Also, you know CD's are digital right? Nothing wrong with the audio quality on that. What kinda problems do you have with MP3, either? 192-320 kbps MP3 audio is great sounding.

Rap is ear bleeding music. There's nothing ear bleeding about rock. Metal is totally different, and not what I listen to.


Child please, rap is one of the best and fastest growing genres and is getting softer, while people in the rock genre is now starting to scream their heads off just to hear themselves. Rock and metal hurts my ears and they get on my bloody nerves. And just for the record, I am a rapper. :angry:


Child? I beg your pardon. I'm a grown man, and you'll talk to me like one, got it?

As for rap-wRAP it up and throw it away.  <_<

Oh, and if your a rapper, that would make you partial. Your opinion is null and void.  :thrilled:



And there's more where that came from.

I beg to differ. You'll be going now. Be sure to let the door hit you on the way out.  :club:

Do you seriously enjoy being a racial stereotype?

All I can say is - Holy crap!

Wow. :wow: Talk about a MAJOR ice storm! :o It seems like folks in all parts of the country are getting a taste of this storm, from right here in Dallas all the way to Pennsylvania.

Right now it's sleeting here, and we are supposed to get some freezing rain overnight. I wonder if school will be delayed. :thinking:
