Us-1, Cable/Satellite Companies-0

I believe everybody is fully aware of the digital switch that took place on June 12th so I won't go into explaining what that is. I do, however, totally believe that it is a conspiracy between the FCC and the cable and satellite companies, or whoever was in charge of this crap. This was there way of forcing almost everybody into paying for tv instead of getting it free. Well, we can still watch our analog tv, so suck on that! They said all we should see is a blue screen or fuzz or something. Sorry but all I see is a picture. Maybe I am totally selling us out to the tv Gods but we still watch our tv. When we do turn our stupid box on we do get a couple more channels but who wants 3 pbs' and 3 kbyu's. Not me. And no, our tv does not have a digital tuner built into it. I looked it up online on their stupid website and it said that it doesn't and that we would need a box. True, our channels are still a little fuzzy, but those pricks in their stupid call centers will never make us pay for tv. That will solely be on our terms. Yes! We win!

If I'm not mistaken, television providers were basically given an extension on the mandatory switch to digital. It's possible your provider down there has yet to make the full transition to digital.

Still, your defiant attitude is admirable.

That's awesome. I'm rooting for you guys. I can't tell the difference anyways on my tv. I think it's just all stupid.
