I will be affected as I am currently getting an analog signal of dish network through Grande Communications. I don't know if Grande will force us to move to Digital Cable, but the quality I get out of the "analog" signal is terrible. I would prefer to have an uncompressed analog signal but I can't get one where I live. Everythin gthat is digital is so compressed I can't watch it. Perhaps if I had HD it would be different too.
My inlaws live way out in the middle of nowhere and can receive signals from both Dallas and Waco through a large antenna. They also have dish network but do not have local channels due to their location. They will probably just opt to pay a little extra a month for "local" channels or they will get a converter for the OTA signal.
