There are ATSC DVCR's (e.g $1000 JVC HM-DT100U) and HD-PVR's (e.g. $2000 HTPC).....which are prohibitively expensive .....might as well lease a Cable (or SAT) HD-PVR and get 200+ channels.... <holl_ands> ================================================ Tom Barry <trbarry@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: I sometimes wonder. There are also no NTSC STB's really for sale. All the NTSC TV's are integrated analog sets. And cheap VCR's became the standard NTSC STB's long ago. But there also don't seem to be any ATSC VCR's or PVR's. And Congress, FCC, etc. do not seem to be worrying much that those functions will therefore become unavailable in 2009. - Tom --------------------------------- Relax. Yahoo!
