This isn't about greed from the broadcasters. The digital transition is being forced upon us by the federal gov't. I work for a PBS station. We don't have a lot of money to throw around, so when the Federal gov't says we have spend millions of dollars to go all digital, it's a big deal. The $40 it'll cost you to receive the digital signal on your analog TV is a small investment compared to the millions it'll cost us to transmit it. Greed doesn't really enter into it at all.
