Re: Very true!

yes, but cable companies WANT to change to all digital, as it frees up additional bandwidth (analog signals use much more b/w). Right now, I believe the FCC is preventing the cablecos from transitioning to all digital (until the official transition) so people that don't want to use a cable box can still get the basic tier by connecting directly to their old, analog TVs.
