So I guess us students will no longer be able to get a tv for less than $50. I personally like the old box. Seems such a waste when many of the old tvs do go ok still.

Quit funny how misleading the title of this story is. "Old TVs face final switch off"... you just need a set top box, not throw away your T.V.

Far cheaper to just buy a Freeview box than to replace the entire TV. They are around $150-$200 each and will come down in price before the switch-over to digital. Possible additional cost if you don't have a satellite receiver dish but they are only $200.
