What does DTV mean for Michigan Public TV Viewers?
With HDTV, arts, drama, theater, science, nature, travel, and exploration programs can be viewed in unsurpassed clarity and sound. Multicasting will allow Michigan’s Public broadcasters to provide enhanced services. Public broadcasters currently have more hours of educational programming than airtime. Multicasting allows multiple programs at the same time, for example, children’s programming, workforce development, a theater event, and a college course. Data transmission provides the ability to expand educational missions by delivering course-related materials to teachers and students at the same time as programming.
