Re: disgusting

I heartily agree. I get digital cable TV, but a lot of people near me can't even get analog cable, and the majority of them can't afford an HD-ready TV (if they could, they'd probably have satellite). In an age where some areas can't even get POTS phone service (I took many tech support calls over CB radio from people who had no landline phone), I fail to see the wisdom in pushing a technology that requires equipment costing as much as some people's cars, while phasing out the system that many people use as their only method of getting TV reception.
