I got an HDTV for myself four years ago. I finally got a TiVo HD two months ago, after living with my old Tivo for seven years.]]>Oct 11th 2007 4:49PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/
This is one of those chicken and the egg things. People don't want to buy an HD TV until there is content and content providers don't want to switch until there is an audience. Why do you think the FCC put a hard date out there in the first place. They knew if they didn't we would still have almost NO HD content.

Recently I feel we have turned a corner. DirectTV is leading the charge and providers are actively moving to provide content. Dish is moving to catch up and like always the cable companies will be the last to move.

What are you talking about?

Virtually all the network prime time shows are in HD
All NFL games are in HD
Every MLB game (except for the O’s (Die Angelos, DIE!) and the Royals)
Discovery, History, TLC, HBO, Showtime and lots of movies.

There’s so much HD content on Direct TV (though it is heavily compressed) that I hardly watch SD content anymore.

If you wait as stated there will always be better sets each year.
You also don't get to enjoy HDM.
Yes my purchase of last year is much cheaper currently but I've basked in HD glory all year.
BTW this my second and I'm ready to upgrade again, maybe next yr.:)]]>Oct 11th 2007 8:59PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/Oct 12th 2007 9:18AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/Oct 12th 2007 4:06PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/Oct 13th 2007 5:04AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/11/when-to-buy-an-hdtv/
