Chicken Little at work.

"The sky is falling - SW will never work. It never worked in the past.
We can only go digital! Everyone will willingly spend more for the receiver!"

As a result, the people of Greenland get nothing.
Even here in the vast expanse of British Columbia, we still
get great coverage from low power AM and FM repeaters.
