The use of digital video has changed the world, as those who have been witness to the YouTube political debates in the United States would attest. It is no longer just a way of allowing poorly rendered footage to be seen on a computer screen. It is clearly the present and future of visual media. There are still a great deal many people using analog technology, but it is foreseeable that this will be a niche demand that will become harder and harder to support. The present and the future clearly belong to digital technology.
