When the T.V. industry goes 100% digital next year will that affect people that have cable boxes already?

What recommendations for new TVs under $500 do you have?


Answer
The TV industry is not going 100% digital.

Cable and Satellite are not directly affected. Only Over the air analog TV is being discontinued.
The cable industry has agreed to continue to provide analog versions of the local over the air TV until 2012, or to furnish converter boxes.

Whatever your present cable service, it shouldn't need to change.
However, you can expect some cable operators to start moving some of their analog offerings to digital, and to encourage customers to get digital service.

Over the air TV from an antenna will still be available using a digital to analog converter box. The Government is providing up to two $40 coupons per household;d towards the purchase of two converter boxes which are expected to cost about $70 or less each before coupon.

The coupons can be applied for now.

As far as recommendations for TVs is concerned, I suggest you get the December issue of Consumer Reports from your Library. They review a large number of sets. When it comes to these new digital sets, it may be very attractive to go with the lowest price you can find. The problem is that not only is the performance poorer, but the reliability and support are much poorer. For many of them, once the warranty is over, there's no service available once they fail.

Answer
It is a good brand, but 10 years is a long time for the life of any TV. http://www.techradar.com/news/television/hdtv/best-tv-2012-what-tv-should-you-buy-this-year-709255
