Ok. So things are starting to become more clear.
It makes sense that HDTV would be digital in signal, hence the ability to reproduce a picture w/o any artifacts.
I can't wait for it to become more mainstream.
Those friends of mine that have the BellVu satellite tv, or something equivalent, have often complained of several things, but the most common being that there really isn't that many channels with HDTV. Reception on some channels they receive is no different than regular analog, coaxial cable.
I've been avoiding getting the satellite system for that reason and one other, the fact that you cannot receive many local or even national, popular channels.
For example, those in Canada should know that TSN is The Sports Network. They telecast the Grey Cup game back in November. Friends who owned the satellite system had to come over to my place to watch the game on big screen b/c their satellite system does not get TSN.
So much for the vaunted "200 plus channels" marketing motto.
My plan is to wait for the digital and HDTV to become either more popular or more mainstream and hence used by more telecasters before i sink my money into it.
