It was digitalized in 2008 and made digital-only.
An examination of how American analog broadcast TV stations performed over the past ten years shows that most of their audiences are ready for the switch to digital-only television.

FCC regulations requiring U.S. broadcasters to cease analog broadcasting on channel 2 through 51 triggered the transition towards digital-only broadcasting.

FAQ

Is Hollywood larger than Bollywood?
Producing a movie that is well-received by the public is the biggest challenge for film producers.

What makes a movie a success? What makes an actor famous or a director? Or a director? It's not just talent - it's also luck. The best actors may be the best, but they will not succeed if they are writing bad scripts.
When it comes to movies, there are two main types. There are big-budget blockbusters as well as small independent productions. Blockbuster films can cost hundreds and millions of dollars to make and distribute. These blockbuster movies are usually produced by big studios who want their movies to reach as broad an audience as possible. These big-budget movies appeal to older audiences.
Independent films are smaller-scale productions that may have to be financed individually or by groups of investors. These films are often targeted at niche markets and appeal to particular tastes. They are generally less costly to produce and market. But, they aren't necessarily cheaper to view. It is actually very difficult to find most indie movies.
