Whether (And When) To Buy HDTV?

Posted by timothy on from the agressively-planned-obsolesence dept.

zzxc writes "A NBC local station in Indiana is carrying an article on whether it is smart to buy a high definition television now or later. While it isn't very technical, it does provide some practical insight. Keep in mind that the FCC deadline for television stations switching to HDTV is December 31, 2006." I don't think I want another television screen that can't also be a computer monitor.

  1. When did it switch to HD? by nurb432 · · Score: 0, Redundant

    It was the rule to switch to just digital, not high definition.

    When did this change?

    its still a stupid rule, and only serves to push more content to fall under the dmca.. and to get rid of the 'small fry' independent broadcasters..
