The question that SHOULD be asked is, what were these people thinking,
Craig's Top Ten List:
10. Abel is a genius - this HDTV scam will keep OUR spectrum tied up
for decades.
9. I'll be retired by the time the FCC actually forces us to switch to DTV.
8. HD needs 50:1 compression...that's a cake walk! Wait until they
see how we squeeze affiliate compensation.
7. We just got re-transmisson consent through Congress; who cares about DTV?
6. They want us to go DIGITAL? Let's get Bill Gates involved so DTV
will be screwed up and never happen.
5. How much power do we need to support a reliable STL to all of the
cable head-ends?
4. Internet piracy is going to be a huge problem; so let's make it
difficult for the pirates to steal our signals out of the air.
3. The engineering capital budget just got cut...again.
2. The NAB just issued a secret report saying that almost all of
those old analog TVs in the den have rabbit ears.
1. Did you see Al Gore's book? When the politicians get this "Global
Warming" ruse entrenched - with lot's of help from the networks - the
cost of electricity is going to go through the roof. Better stay with
VHF.
