Digital TV: Why Did They Bother?

It's been more than a year since the introduction of Digital Tv. Remember all the talk about more channels and supposedly, more choice? Instead we have RTN, with its constant reruns of Magnum PI, The A Team, and Knightrider. Then there's "This" network with it's constant showing of B-movies from the 1980's. It's like who cares?

It's seems that digital tv was just another corporate scheme to make us the consumers buy new equipment with money we could've used to othe purposes. If a show like Magnum now looks like a "classic" it's only because today tv shows are nothing but dreck. There isn't a single show on network tv that I actually enjoy watching. If it weren't for PBS I probably wouldn't watch tv at all.
