Say bye-bye to analog television

When BE first told me about this, I was sure it was an urban legend, but it's true, there is a law on the books stating that all broadcast TV must be digital after Dec. 31, 2006. Time to panic? Not really. For details, read this article about the death of analog.

Y'know, I've heard a lot of people come up with some crazy ideas for "why there oughta be a law", but jeebus...

when the law was made, several years ago, it actually made sense. Really! But back then we also thought we'd have flying cars by now, ya know?

Maybe. But it still smacks of some kind of Orwellian-style conspiracy.
