TV is a luxury. If you can't afford it, I guess that's too bad. I personally have 3 HDTV's in my house, an HD computer monitor, and 6 (in-use) TV's in general. I have an SD flat-screen (for my Wii) and an HDTV for my main TV in my room, along with the HD computer monitor. But I've worked like a f*cking animal for everything I own, and so have the rest of my family.

I mean, I really don't know how to feel sorry for the people this will effect. If you can't afford the cheap cost of TV that can support digital cable at this point, I don't even know what to say. I know people have sh*t to deal with, but if you have choose feeding your family over a TV, the choice should be clear, and I personally don't think you should be allowed to complain about that.

It's not that we can't afford the box, it's just that she doesn't want it, which seems contrived to me. For some irrational reason she thinks it's a part of some conspiracy and TV is evil and "why do they need to change it" and blah blah blah. I'm sure any of you have met this type of person and you know the paranoia/closemindedness I speak of.

Oh well, when I buy one on my own, it'll be funny when she will have to ask me to use it.
