HDTV + FCC is a load of CRAP!

Make the damn cable companies that have been milking customers for years put out the HDTV converters so people can either hookup "there tv" or their HDTV. Hell, even the SAT companies only have a mere handful of HDTV channels and you have to buy the HDTV receiver and pay extra for the HDTV programming who's twin channels you already get. Make the consumer buy high priced sets? I got an idea, lower taxes then we can all "go get one". The FCC needs to do its job for a change instead of putting its nose were it doesn't belong..........

cable co's and sat co's already offer afforable lease plans on HD set top boxes. you don't pay any more than SD STBs.

no one is making you spend money. you can keep 10-20 years old tv's if you want and continue to use them. i certainly will.

they're just replacing aging analog OTA signal which has been always "FREE" to begin with. it's not like something you've been paying for.

cheers...
