I'm sick to death of the endless commercials and scrolls about it. But you know who I worry about not converting and losing access to TV? Old people. After taking care of elderly parents and parent-in-laws, etc., I know first hand how difficult it is for them to learn new technology. My in-laws were the worst. They lived out in the country, and when they finally were able to get satellite, we ended up making the long drive again and again over about 5 years to "fix" whatever they had messed up.
All they needed was a TV with an actual dial to turn, but reception was so bad where they lived that they could only pick up one or two channels from the antenna. It was necessary for them to have TV, because we are in tornado country. She liked her soaps, and he liked old westerns. I miss them.
