Latest DTV Survey: 2.5% still not ready for the change
June 10, 2009 by Derek
Change is a tough thing, we get it. But since we’re 2 days away from the big switchover to DTV, there are some that either didn’t get the memo, or don’t care. It could be either one (maybe 2.5% of the population never watches much and aren’t concerned, at least right now). That’s an estimated 2.8 million homes not prepared, which is still a fair number.
Who wants to bet half of those people will be calling the FCC or local stations on June 12th? That’s how its been so far with the limited amount of switches that have occured already.
Only 48 hours remaining until the big change, and we can’t wait. It’ll mean better quality, more HDTV choices and better TV in the long run, and that’s good for everyone (who cares about the future of HDTV anyway).
