...Amusing thought: it might be cheaper to build an ATSC box than a traditional NTSC box, because you don't need an MPEG encoder. You only need the decoder. Think of this as the "TiVo HD Adapter", with optional hard drive, to help consumers when they turn off the analog NTSC broadcasts...


And when you pitch it that way, it could actually qualify for some of those gubmint subsidies for converter boxes.
