Have to switch?

[Gamekid]

I have read numerous articles that have stated that Congress is going to end anolog signals for TVs which means that our current CRT TVs won't work anymore. The year for this is 2009 or something. Anyway, is this true? I have no objection with the statement, but what if some of us don't want to switch? I mean there are those that still don't have a DVD player, those that still don't have a flat panel TV, those that still don't have high speed internet access or don't have internet access at all. When blu ray comes in, there will be those that just can't or won't want to switch from regular DVD to blu ray DVD.
