The recent switching off of all analog TV signals in the US caught some people off-guard still using analog TVs and antennas.
Not that they can't use their old analog TVs anymore but they need to buy a gadget called "set top box," some sort of analog to digital tv converter (prize subsidized byt the government).
In the Philippines, there's still the tug-of-war between two digital tv standards: Japanese ISDB-T (integrated services digital broadcasting-terrestrial) and the European standard DVB-T (digital video broadcasting-terrestrial). Both ISDB-T and DVB-T standards allow high definition video delivered in widescreen format and various interactive services including video on-demand video.
I'm holding off the purchase of a new TV, particularly an LCD TV for now and now adopting a wait-and-see attitude on this
