Eric Kallgren Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 9:25pm on Wednesday, June 17th, 2009 | Paul Farhi wrote an insightful story about the transition to digital television in the United States, published in the Washington Post on June 10, 2009. It's titled "Broadcast TV Never Converted Its Digital Dream" and begins:
"It was going to be glorious, positively Jetsonian. With digital broadcasting, the television industry once promised, the TV set would be transformed into a miraculous info-appliance, the modern household's electronic brain.
No longer would the TV be a mere conduit for sitcoms and soap operas. With digital broadcasts, the TV -- or perhaps the PCTV -- would become a shopping portal, an information node, an Internet-surfing console. Thanks to digital's limitless interactive capabilities, you'd be able to call up player stats during ballgames, play video games with people across the country or take college-level courses from your couch. Each night while you slept, a digital "data" broadcast would send a customized daily newspaper to your set-top box; all you'd have to do in the morning was hit "print."
Well, the future officially arrives this week, and it's . . . not exactly as advertised."
