One month is passing since analog broadcasting was finished except for in three prefectures damaged badly by 3.11 earthquake.
At least during July, there were full of news about disorders.
I seldom watch TV at home from 2006.
Simply because I have something else to do. (See Feb. 10, 2009)
It hasn't changed even after I introduced new digital TV.
And from 2010, I stopped watching TV news except for in cases of emergency like typhoons and other natural disasters.
Because especially in the busy morning, my eyes are glued on screen if the TV is on and I slow down in changing clothes, combing my hair, and so on.
I listen to the radio news in the morning to avoid this.

There is a recycling system, though.
So once I wondered that which would be friendlier on Earth, introducing digital TV set as soon as possible, using old analog TV set till the end, or minimizing the time to watch TV to the limit. (See May 27, 2009)
But needless to see the recent survey that a TV set consumes electricity more than an air conditioner , the answer seems to be the third one.
In this month, contents of programs and the scheme of TV broadcasting are mainly disputed, but this is another story.
