DTV's Bottom Line

Eventually you will have no choice but to adapt to digital TV, but there is plenty of motivation for doing so.

DTV is the future. Over time, more and more shows will be made and broadcast in HDTV. Eventually, nearly all programs and newscasts will be in HDTV, exciting your senses with a "you-are-there" visual and audio experience.

DTV offers more opportunities. Face it, would you buy cable or satellite TV if you only had a choice of six channels? You're receiving WBAY-TV's signals off-the-air for free, and digital holds the potential for multiple channels.

Someday you may see features like:

• Additional program choices
• Additional information about programs you're watching
• StormCenter 2 Pinpoint Digital Doppler Radar during severe weather events
• TV shows and movies broadcast in multiple languages
• Sending digital information to your computer or handheld device
• Cast lists for movies or rosters for sporting events
• Choosing among different camera angles

And DTV is here. You can already plug in an HDTV set and watch the TV shows you already enjoy, except now you'll see them with perfect reception and a crystal clear picture.

Television has shown us the world, shown us other worlds, has entertained us, and in so many ways changed our lives. Now television itself is changing.
