The Journey Begins

After subscribing to analog cableTV for years, we took the first step of modernizing by purchasing a new digital TV from BestBuy last week.

There are a number of decisions to make:

• Plasma vs. LCD (what size?)
  
• Terrestrial Antenna vs. Cable vs. Satellite
• if satellite (DirecTV vs. Dish)
• if digital cable (Limited Basic vs. Digital Classic vs. Premium)
• High definition via all the above?
  
• Upgrade the TiVo to HDTiVo?

We decided to start with the bedroom TV. Due to the dimensions of the armoir housing the TV, we decided to go with a 32-in LCD. Plasmas usually start at 37 inches and the best deals appear to be for the 42 inch models. We needed a flat screen so LCD was the way to go. A large plasma for the family room is still in the plans.
