Vote on a New TV

I am totally overwhelmed and am experiencing what I think the East Germans experienced upon setting foot in a Western department store.

Jesus H. Christ - where did all these broadcast channels come from - and what's with this Channel 2 and Channel 2.1, 2.3, etc. I grew up calling channels by their number and now I've got things like "Qube" what the hell is that?

I haven't even begun experimenting with the satellite. I'm used to watching one show - this is madness, how does anyone know what's on? I spent a half hour mesmerized by Huell Howser on some decimal channel.

I've turned off the set, and returned to the internet where I feel in control. Baby steps...
