From the guys I know here working at a cable provider the basic reason is space and cost. 10 channels are needed to transmit analog vs 1 for digital so if you got the major 5 analog channels to convert to digital they could sell 50 more spots for programming. ABC FOX NBC an so on need a kick in the ass to make the switch so congress has to step in.
