Digital television and its centerpiece application, HDTV, represent an advance in TV technology even more significant than the introduction of color. Besides delivering much clearer images and six-channel surround sound, HDTV lets you watch motion pictures the way they were intended to be seen: on a wide 16-by-9 screen, one-third wider than today's 4-by-3 screens. In addition to its entertainment and home theater uses, digital TV will offer a variety of interactive applications. With a wider picture, over 1000 lines of resolution, and more than five times sharper than today's television, digital TV is capable of delivering virtually any combination of video, audio and data to the home.
