Sounds like the latest ad so help identify TVs taht can pick up digital broadcasts.

It look out for the "DVB" label on new tvs, "Digital Video Broadcasts".

The reason they decided to do this was because people were getting tvs with digital tv receivers confused with tvs with digital processing (not digital tv receivers)

So a digital tv capable tv will have a DVB label on it.

ITV2, BBC Choice are free to air and so they can be picked up by a DVB TV without requiring a subscription to OnDigital.
