Which is better-the set-top box or integrated receiver approach?
It all depends on what you are looking for, how much you want to pay, and when you want to make your purchase. If the local stations in your area are broadcasting DTV, an integrated set is probably the set to buy. However, if the stations in your area are not yet broadcasting DTV, you might consider buying a high-definition monitor now-to get improved pictures for your regular television programs (via satellite, cable, or through your antenna) and your DVD-and then add a set-top box once stations in your area are on the air with digital programming.
