Atsc 3 will most likely be encrypted sooner or later.
There are quite a few atsc crypted channels now.

encrypted on ota?

[The Noof]

but if you wait until technology advances then prices will drop
that has been proven time and time again

Agreed.....

Already happening. Dvr is another target because Tivo isn't getting royalties

only change I've noticed is in last 15 years is I get 50% more channels since 4 major networks have added more channels like instead of just 7-1 it now goes to 7-5
will keep an eye on it to see if any changes get made

when it comes to resolution 720,1080,4k and 8k . When does it come a time when you can see the difference anymore. Like most , the older you get the worse your eyes get. I see very little difference now between 1080 and 4k , if it is actually 4k that I'm streaming on a brand new Samsung tv.

I too have aging eyes & in need of a prescription change,but on a good tv, the differences in image quality are stunning between FHD & UHD.I have at least 12 of 40 or so UHD blurays that are so details they are almost 3d in depth perception.It has much to do with the quality of your playback devices.Swan:if you didn't live 2k away, I would bring you over & prove it.lol.
As a reference I compare everything against the "Everest" 4k bluray.It is stunning.The streamed version is not comparable in any way.

On a side note, the fact that 480p tv broadcasts are alive & popular tell me that hd tv isn't available or neccessary to everyone, or it wouldn't exist at all.Not all changes are important to everyone...lol.

as you pointed out, 4k bluray compared to 4k streaming is like comparing apples to oranges,

as for ATSC, 1080 OTA broadcast is still mpeg2 ... IMO better picture quality (fine detail) than anything streamed using mpeg4 ...

Because of less compression .
