good old tuners going obsolete


Well I didn't getting any feedback on my post about the Marantz ST-7001. I know it is one of many that will be the new wave of the future. Already radio stations are advertising that they are launching HD channels. Which means that if your using that much cherished - - - - - - - - ( fill in the blank with your favorite tuner ) you will not be able to pull in any of the HD channels, you will be limited to only the channels you are receiving now. And it is my understanding that some of the stations are already planning on putting different programing in the slot that is available to analog tuners. Of the high end tuners I have been able to trace so far, only Marantz and Magnum are making HD tuners. What I just can't figure out though, is why people are so willing to shell out big bucks for these analog tuners here and on ebay. They will soon be next to worthless :(

Hello, If two people have the same opinion, one of you is unnecessary/redundant.

Sherod saidUh, Bob? What is your point?

Regarding my statement of, "Hello, If two people have the same opinion, one of you is unnecessary/redundant".

This is a discussion forum. If we all had the same opinion, same thoughts, a mutual admiration society would exist. What would be the point? I for one want different opions, thoughts and ideas to expand my own ideas and possibilites. I allready know what I know, what do others know that is interesting and fruitful for me to learn?

P.S. A mutual admiration society can be quite useful infact.
If you and I are using the same equipment or are searching in the same direction we could put our thoughts together to expand on the possibilites of the eqipment or setup etc.
This would be useful in this case.
