Free TV Will Have 4K Content in a Couple Years

Consumer Reports is running an article titled Free Over-the-Air TV Is Going to Get Better. They're rolling out a new standard, ATSC 3.0.

According to the article, you'll be able to watch OTA (over the air) TV on your phone or tablet! I wrote an article a few years back wondering why you couldn't already.

It's a fairly long and very informative article, but very much worth a read. It only talks about American broadcasts, no word about when or if it will reach other countries, but my guess is it won't be long.

    I see someone could use some socialised mental health care.

      I don't think that word means what you think it means.

    That you are incapable of realizing what's going on and the techniques used is not really our problem. So this "care" stuff is utterly bullshit.

      You're delusional*. Get some help.

      *please note that one of the symptoms is not being able to realise you're delusional.
