February 2008, United States television is going digital. This means that all analog tv’s will no longer operate. If you have satellite or cable connection, you are going to be find. However, if you have neither, you would need to purchase the digital tv box to convert analog outputs into digital. A lot of people already has digital tv by virtue of purchasing HDTV (with HDMI splitter). But most people still carry their old analog TVs. I know I am one of the guilty parties who are still using analog antennas. Anyways, I still do not have plans on converting into cable so we will be getting that coupon for the digital converter box. February is just four months away. I do not watch that many tv shows anyways to warrant the use of cable so I can save the sixty five dollars a month and use it for something else, like purchasing a disability insurance. He he he.
