I think the industry has a problem. Maybe they want it to happen for profit.

I was in Best Buy today and saw someone picking up a converter box while I was looking at TV's. She asked me if this was the box that she needed to buy to keep her TV working. I asked her if she got her TV with an antenna. She said "no I have cable". I then asked if she had a cable box, she said yes. I told her that she didn't need a converter box and the cable company will give her a new digital box if she still has an old one. She told me that her friend told her that her TV wouldn't work if she didn't get the new box.

I'm afraid a lot of people are probably going to think the same thing.
