Analog vs. Digital - Benefits/drawbacks?
I have to write a paper for my business ethics class about the benefits and drawbacks of switching from analog to digital. However, I am totally tech retarded, so if some could explain some of them in laymen terms I would appreciate it.
Thanks!

it's benefits because in digital you can fit even 4 channels on one
called sub channels , so you can have 17-1,17-2,17-3 and so on.
Also the tv station can save power as digital signals reach far with low
power for example fox is 60 miles away from me and the analog is using 4000 killowatts of electricity and I get snowy picture, the digital is only 800 killowatts and I get perfect HD picture. Also that means more channels, free high definition and surround sound. Anolog just plain sucks.

the assumption replaced into to liberate area for different broadcasting companies - digital takes up much less bandwidth, etc, etc advert naus. yet with the creation of HD extra bandwidth is important to transmit the sign... erm... definite! i think of it replaced into relatively a enhance to the radio and television merchants' coffers, back. (undergo in techniques moving to 625 strains, digital radio fiasco etc.?) besides the fact that any government branch tells you it is in all risk a nil.5 reality at ultimate. And somebody is often on the make!
