This is a 'yes' and 'no' question. As we move ever forward into the 21st Century, here in England at least, by 2012, the whole of the United Kingdom, will by then have become 'Digital'. Whether people like it or not, that is the direction we are heading in because Digital is, and will be, the future. With the phasing off of the old communication systems {FM Radio Waves and Analogue TVs} the only choice people will have will be either to purchase the latest technology {which is quite cheap now, the cheapest Digital Box here in the UK is around 15.00 pounds} or be left behind.

In most cases these boxes are given away free - especially to pensioners and low income, or unemployed families - so there will be no excuse for anyone to be left behind in the Digital Age. The reason they are given away is simple, here, in the United Kingdom, the country
wants to prepare people for the big changeover. In some parts of the country this is already happening now, with FM Radio signals and Analogue TVs being switched off, in preparation for 2012} a whole new advertising campaign has has been taking place within the country, as the message to people to go Digital continues to be spread.

As I have said, people are not - and will not - be left behind, but are given, in most cases, Digital boxes which they simply plug into the back of their analogue TV, thereby their TV now becomes Digitial, it is as simple as that. People cannot continue to watch TV shows on
the old Analogue Systems because it will eventually become impossible to do so. So, one might as well say that people are left with no choice at all about whether they want to go 'Digital' or not.

I do believe that Digital Radio and TV, are a thousand times better than the old Analogue Systems. There are more choices of channels {on both radio and TV}, and with Digital, you are connected to the world, you become 'interactive' by just pressing the 'red button' on your remote control.

The positives of Digital TV and Radio are there for all to see. They produce a far better reception, there is no more 'white noise' that one used to get on the old Analogue Systems when changing channels. No more will you try in frustration to get that radio channel you where listening too the night before, but cannot get now, because you cannot get a good enough reception. Digital has cut all that out now, changing channels on the radio and going straight to the station you are looking for, is to my mind, a Godsend
