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 :/
