HDTV has many advantages over analog TV.
It might surprise many TV viewers that HDTV was first developed more than 30 years ago in Japan. The United States became interested in the high-definition technology in the early 1980s. The first components were introduced to the U.S. public in the late 1990s. The advantages of HDTV are many when compared to the traditional analog TV of years past.
The Clarity Advantage
HDTV offers an unbelievably clear picture because the signal is transferred through a digital signal. There are 2 million pixels delivered through the digital signal compared to less than 500,000 pixels delivered through analog signals. This can give you a sharp and more precise picture. HDTVs have more lines of resolution compared with analog, which translates to a picture that is two to five times sharper and a no-noise reception.
The Dolby Sound Advantage
HDTV has a sound that is far superior to the soundtrack of analog TV. The digital signal that gives HDTV a superb picture also translates to a more refined sound to the human ear. The refined sound of HDTV originates with Dolby Sound. Many consumers are familiar with Dolby Sound because movies and CDs are produced using this digitally produced trademark. This gives you a sound quality that no one thought possible two decades ago from a TV.
The Wide Screen Picture Advantage
HDTV provides a wider picture than traditional TV. Many times, movies on an analog TV can look choppy, and some of the screen might even look like it's missing something. Because HDTVs have a wider screen, they fix the choppy look that movies used to have in analog. Movies will fit better and allow you to see the original film as it was seen in theaters. This improvement in screen size will give you an enormous advantage over analog TV. It gives you the best possible screen that really great movie theaters have. You will not need to leave your home to experience sports, movie and specials in surround sound.
The Multiple Show Viewing Advantage
The HDTV digital signal enables you to watch more than one program on the same channel. It will give you a chance to watch a show, pull up an electronic program guide, subtitles and other languages. These options are not available in analog TV.
