Digital TV Transition Coupon Program Runs Out Of Money: You’re Screwed!

Posted by Bradley under Technology, Television

Basically if you haven’t applied for and received your coupon for a Digital TV Converter Box by now you’re out of luck.

The $1.34 billion set aside for the National Telecommunications and Information Administration coupon program has been used up.

There is no more.

Your rabbit ear lovin’ analog TV will cease working on February 17th, 2009.

Unless you shell out the $60 yourself.
