Highly Ranked

Besides America, ATSC really hasn't taken off. We don't really have OTA HD in canada except for 1-2 channels where I am and so as recently as early 2007, most televisions up here were HD-Ready. Now the majority has started to come through with ATSC/QAM tuners inside.

Instead of trying to be a smartass, why not try and be more constructive? You must realize that still only 40% of american households (maybe less) own an HDTV, A great fraction of that will only be 1080i televisions, a smaller fraction will be 1080p, and an even smaller will be 120 hz etc...

If you consider 6 year old televisions ancient, then I am at a loss for words. But know that only around late 2006-early 2007 did all tv's start coming with ATSC tuners etc...
