Let me add one note.
If the US switched to DVB-T, presumably LG would be able to make DVB-T
receivers profitably for the US market. Something they say they cannot
do now with 8-VSB.
They can do it now in OZ which is only 1/16 the size of the US. So the
US would be a slam dunk.
They must have the answer that Bert is so baffled about.
After all they are at the center of 8-VSB. If they can't make it happen
who can?
