If I don't like the television offering and will not watch it because its junk and garbage, what difference does it make if its offered in HD or SD?

As it is, I can tell little difference between a OTA digital HD picture and a SD picture, except to note that both run rings around an OTA analog signal. And its the increased content variety of multicasts that has made the digital transition a positive experience for me. And since multicasts are fairly new, I expect more and more stations to take fuller advantage of multicasts in the future.

And to answer the question, no I do not use a converter box and a old analog TV incapable of delivering HD, both my TV sets can and do deliver HD.

are you sure? The offerings have been outstanding the last few years. Right now, not so much, but during TV season, yes.
