Glad somebody else notices that analog tv is far superior to the digital crap SD you get. Unfortunately it has all been phased out here.

One of the main reasons for switching to digital television is the need for more spectrum, commonly referred to as frequencies or airwaves. Spectrum is used for wireless telephone services, emergency communications, etc.

Digital signals use less airwave space than analog signals. This means that the freed-up space can be used for other services that have a high demand for more space. Digital technology also provides better picture and sound.

Blatant lies. I now have an ugly digital box taped to my CRT tv, with a 2nd remote, and crap picture quality. Progress....
In busy scenes analog TV outdid digital HDTV broadcasts. When the strobe lights go off, HDTV turns into a 360p you tube video :/

Digital tech does provide a much superior picture than analog for TV's.   An analog 1080p signal, wouldn't look so great.

Sounds like you may have, what my cable company tried to give to me - a really crappy digital tuner.  The tuner in my TV is dramatically better, but they are phasing that out in favor of their new secure cable channels.  So my picture quality will dramatically suffer because of their unneeded security - Which is why I will probably drop them.


I am surprised you are still using a CRT.  They tend to produce much heat and consumer much electricity.  You might want to check it out that you could upgrade to a LED LCD TV and possibly pay for itself over the electricity savings.  Plus, I think you would enjoy the dramatically better picture.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.
