Analogue TV starting to drop-off

Panasonic analogue TV

Panasonic has become the first major TV manufacturer to put an end to its analogue manufacturing, to concentrate on the digital market as it blossoms.

Matsushita Electronic, of which Panasonic is the brand name, will stop developing analogue sets from next month.

The UK’s analogue switch off is not until 2012, but the next-generation services launch this year with the arrival of high-definition broadcasts from Sky and the BBC.

Panasonic has also just announced plans to build the world’s largest plasma display plant in Japan. Good thing they made room for it by dropping the old TVs!

R.I.P. Analog TVs

Yeah, the official exit for analog TVs isnÂ’t slated until 2012, at least for the U.K., but one manufacturer has already announced an end to its analog manufacturing. Matsushita Electronics, the parent company of Panasonic, will put the axe to...

It is 2009 now and we are going to say farewell to Analogue TV soon

Did my last comment go through?????
