Japan Tv Going Digital

If you are living in Japan, be forewarned that your current television may become obsolete in July 2011, just five short years from now.

At that time Japan will discontinue analog television broadcasting, which means that analog television sets will not longer be able to receive any TV show broadcast here without the addition of a special digital tuner.

Despite the fact that this deadline approaching relatively shortly, only about 30% of the people in Japan know about the upcoming changeover from analog to digital broadcasting.
