I don't like highly compressed pictures I am afraid

Highly Ranked

Maybe some people don't want to pay a ton of money for channels they'll never watch.

I say thank goodness. ESPN's HD broadcast is the only on that does sports any amount of justice.

Highly Ranked

It's obvious some of you guys haven't seen OTA television lately. It has advanced by miles in the background while no one was watching. It's starting to the be the hottest thing out there. The HD is the best available. I don't have it in my house yet but will shortly. My wife and I were at a resturaunt getting a to go order a few weeks ago and were watching a football game in HD from an OTA transmission. The picture was amazing!! The biggest thing with it is the compression. OTA uses about 4 times less than a cable or satellite. I really think people in metropolitan areas will start going to back to OTA television soon, like shortly after the required switch date. With the digital requirement one old station can now be four with the subchannels. The digital transmissions are crystal clear. Ghost images and static are gone and audio is transmitted in Dolby 5.1. A dish or cable doesn't even come close. Digital over the air television is now outstanding. It's only a matter of time before the general public finds out. Plus, don't forget the number one selling point for OTA, it's free...
