Are YOU ready for the conversion?

People still watch TV over the air?  I've been doing it over the net (if I watch anything at all anymore, which is to say, generally not...) for years.

It pisses me off I have to RENT a god damn BOX to be able to watch cable around my house. I already RENT 1 HD and 1 DIGITAL box, but now I can't even have a damn small TV in my room without paying out my ass.

Commies...

The cable server here still does and will continue support basic service for a long while, no boxes needed.  Have you tried asking if your provider supports basic cable connections, you do not need a box for those, but you are limited to like 124 channels or so...

Over here, you are limited to the 15 Local channels (we get some reception from the 3 cities around us) and at the most an extra 40 basic cable channels..... And seeing as we retardedly switched to Dish Network recently, I have to wait until June to switch....... im watching antennae atm.....

Damn you Americans with your 10,000 channels!!

We get only 7 free channels (HD and Foxtel give us like 50 more though).

BBB, free channels?

I get like 2.

I PAY for my channels, all of them!

AND many are already NO LONGER in analog DESPITE being UHF HENCE I will LOOSE them ALL unless I RENT YET ANOTHER PIECE OF hoot BOX!

[bigbadbogie]

Yeah but you still get way more channels.

you are limited to like 124 channels or so...

Grrrr!!! So infuriating!!

Are YOU ready for the conversion?

Completely ready. The Analogue TV that I don't own can be replaced at no cost by an equally non-existant digital device...
My life and brain will remain unfilled with all that tedious life absorbing sh*t!

[Warfreak]

Its  2-3 instances of Fox, 2 instances of NBC, 2 of CBS, 3 of PBS, The local spanish channel, Something equivilant to WB, "The Bible" channel (as i call it), and i forget the last one......... So basically, without the other stations, i get 7 Channels.......

I want my Stargate...
Oh, and Dr. Who...

Already lost CourtTV (now TrueTV) on analog.
