No, Windows Genuine Advantage does not cover it. If you want the software, you must have Windows Vista, unless you already have Vista in which case it will NOT work (whichever is less convenient). You may download the 30-minute trial for $900 and then purchase the software for uh...much, MUCH more.
In addition to Genuine Windows and a Zune, you will also need an XBox 360, Office 2007, Internet Explorer 7, MSN service, a Hotmail account, a second mortgage, and a multitouch coffee table to activate this software. We appreciate your interest in our service and uh...uh...ok, not we don't.

it will cost billions for consumers to convert their TVs to HD.
Actually, this loss of VHF/UHF only applies to those who still use an antenna. Anyone using satellite, digital cable, or even basic cable will not be affected, as the signal is already digital. If anyone does use an antenna, however, he/she can buy a set-top box to get a digital signal on any normal TV. No need to convert to HD, or spend billions.
Would you like to...? 1. Remark that in Soviet Russia, MS, Linux, and China intersect you 2. Open the template for an underpnts gnomes reference 3. Welcome our Chinese, open-source, Redmond-based overloards 4. Imagine a Beowulf cluster of these 5. post a link to goatse
