digital tv already introduced in belgium (Score 1)

Our cable company telenet already enforced everybody to go digital. It just took away some channels and said if you want them back you have to buy a digibox (about 50 euro for the simple and 250 for the extended box, well you 'rent' it and after a couple of years its yours). This evolution is expected to continue into fase 2 where every channel will be digital. Strangely enough nobody really complains about it or atleast nothing is happening to support 'poor' families. Also anothe small remark, since this box does digital->analogue it's not necessary to throw away your tv, only if you want 'better than current analogue tv quality' you need to buy a new tv-set.
