If you needed proof that "digital" is not always better...

...look no further than this article.

There is a commercial about the coming "digital switch" next year for television which brags "You know digital makes everything better." We need reminding that a "digital" solution is only as good as the developer who wrote it and the hardware behind it. I am wondering how many people will be without TV at all next year, when their new digital TVs or digital tuners are load tested for the first time, and the manufacturers stop answering customer service calls.
