Every single item on that site is dated 2003, nothing is as of today.
And I agree every system has its advantages. A Model T in very good
condition has a high resale value due to its age and colectability.
8-VSB because of its inherent limitations has been a good place holder
for broadcasters to keep spectrum off the market and to let them go on
milking the cow they know while they try to figure out what to do with
digital. 8-VSB has kept everything on hold for a long time. Some advantage.
