people in States still see it fussy when they watch the tv being broadcast out from Asia b/c of the format they're using vs. what we're using, the bit rate in Asia is slower than what is in the US i.e North America, they're using PAL format vs. we're using NTSC (ATSC) now since we had converted to Digital.
