It's not very difficult here, but I've noticed that CRTs are suddenly
in the minority in the shops. It's basically the same as what

buy CRT if you're budget-conscious.
The quality of programming in this country makes it difficult to
justify owning a TV at all. I don't consider that to be a bad thing
because it means I can use the time more constructively.
