The broadcasters will most likely meet the deadline.

Unless you invest in an airiel and decoder or sat-tv and decoder, it is not available on most cable companies.

Cable companies have 81.4% of the TV market where as Sat TV only has 18.2% of tv veiwing subscribers. (Source: Satellite Broadcasting Association, figures as of OCtober 2001, http://www.sbca.com/mediaguide/factsfigures.htm)

In my state there are three HDTV air broadcasters only. Cable TV has 92% of the market here. I will never see HDTV on Cox or ATT here in CT. Their intent is not to carry it though broadcasters will be required to transmit in some form of HDTV.

All I ask is for a chance to prove that money can't make me happy.
