But like a lot of things, it does have hidden implications. For
example, your old analog TV's OTA tuner is now mute, so it puts a bigger
burden back on your VCR or Tivo (or MythTV box) if you want to watch one
show while recording another. You may want a second tuner in that
MythTV, a little more CPU and memory in the box.
Also, the "control" of the program on the older TV now switches to the
recorder unless you get one of those "converter boxes" that they are
talking about.
