I completely disagree. There is no justification for 1080P in a 
digital distribution system for the masses.

If you do not understand the discussion, I'd suggest you study the 
basic issues here. We are not migrating to a nation of homes with 
100" diagonal 1080P displays.

NOT EVEN CLOSE!

Just out of curiosity Dale...

When does your station plan on moving to 100% HD production of all 
local programming and commercials?

And when do you plan to return your NTSC channel?
