IMHO, the FCC really jumped the gun on HDTV and DTV. Hey look, the standard was hammered out in '98. Well, video codecs, processors, etc have advanced lightyears since then. We're stuck with a 1998 standard though. At least NTSC left some wiggle room, and NTSC was better than could be achived practically in the 50's anyway.
Do any NTSC TVs today even come with full I/Q demod, or NTSC correct phosphors? The former should be a no brainer - it's just another few transistors on a chip. The latter? Aren't there tinted phosphors that can get you there, too?
Actually, didn't RCA's colortrak have I/Q, along with some Panasonics?
