Senate Passes Digital TV Transition Plan

Via Reuters.

The U.S. Senate approved legislation on Wednesday that would complete the country's transition to new, higher-quality digital television by February 17, 2009.

Up to $1.5 billion would be available to help some consumers buy converter boxes so existing analog televisions do not go dark when broadcasters air only digital signals.

With the cable downconversion issue unsettled, I don't think we've seen the end of the story yet.
