Many of us have electronic devices from the 1980's and early 90's that haven't failed.

Until Congress sold the television spectrum and the FCC ordered broadcasting to cease, many of us still had non-HD TVs.

Um, I still have mine.

I only use it so that the kids can watch DVDs. There is still a good enough selection of DVDs available. I'll upgrade when it breaks and is irreparable. But not until.
