Another factor is the general concern by the broadcast industry that Internet usage is greatly reducing the amount of time people are spending watching T.V. even when they have 150 channels to choose from. A perfect example is how badly NBC is doing with the Olympics.

So why would the Joe Sixpack family spend their hard earned dollars on a television which WILL provide much improved picture clarity, but the same old programming.

Not going to happen anytime soon, UNLESS HDTV becomes a loss leader for longterm Sat or Cable T.V. programming contracts.
