Just like digital cellphones. We all know how much it easier it is
to hear someone in a marginal area on digital, right? Why, rather than
just a fade out or a burst of static, we get a burst of encoded noise,
and a dropped call. Yea, that's progress!

Great, an increase of channels with worse reception and programming
quality than analogue - all in the name of progress :( Grrr!
Does this mean we can expect to see lots of
discarded telegram gear
now?
They should be on the same rack with the handheld TV's that will become
useless when we go all digital.
