Re: Cable scores in 2009

Purchase a digital-to-analog converter box that plugs into an existing television. The boxes, which are expected to cost between $50 - 70 will be available for purchase in 2008. Beginning on January 1, 2008, U.S. households can request up to two coupons valued at $40 each.
I don't see who is supplying these coupons?
And why should I re-pay too view public transmissions?

Again, cable wins here.

According to the website www.ntia.doc.gov The NTIA (National Telecommunications and Information Administration)is in charge of the program:

"The Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) has launched the Digital-to-Analog Converter Box Coupon Program (Coupon Program), as authorized in the Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005."
