Don't Buy the Box

Why EAT SHIT, Americans?

"Americans wrestling with TV converter box problems

Some Americans are finding the government-issued coupons used to help defray costs of digital television converter boxes are expiring before they can be redeemed, House lawmakers said. Consumers also are having a tough time finding the converter boxes, which are sold out in some stores, and should be given more time to purchase them even after the coupons expire, several lawmakers said during a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee hearing. The government established a $1.5 billion coupon program to help millions of consumers buy the converter boxes before the nationwide transition to digital programming takes effect in February. Households are eligible for two $40 coupons, which are aimed primarily at up to 21 million owners of older-model sets that use antennas for reception. Cable and satellite TV subscribers do not need the boxes (AP)."
