The debate may be over, but the consequences are not. One
consequence that's ongoing: TV reception that's eccentric at best.
So why not talk about it? Among other things, useful information can
be exchanged: e.g. which types and brands of antenna work best, where
to get them, and other tips. This is especially important for those
of us who live in apartments and can't put a big antenna on the roof.
I'd love to have cable or satellite, but that's a "Let them eat cake"
solution to the problem. (Have you ever noticed how many ways there
are to say, "Let them eat cake"? While, in a strictly historical
sense, Marie Antoinette may not have actually said it, other people
have been saying it in one form or another ever since.)

How often
do we get real news on the RIAA? Ever hear the letters EFF on
network or
cable news when talking about copyright cases?
That's is a tough one. On one hand we have the Supreme Ayatollah
who says "The election is over." On the other hand you have those
corrupt cons/neocons who will scream "No" until hell freezes over.
There will always be dissenters who will not shut up. At some point
a reasonable person has to say it is time to move on. With the RIAA
a reasonable person might say it is time to go back and fix
mistakes of the past. This may be a question that has no answer.
