I have a desktop Sony PC RS 530 G. It came with a TV tuner, but it's analog. How do I convert to digital TV? What's the best product?

What kind of digital TV are you talking about? Cable? Satellite? Or over the air? I ask because to my knowledge there are no digital TV tuners that can handle cable or satellite...no matter what, you will still have to use the satellite or cable providers box. There is an ATI digital tuner that works with CableCARDs, but to my knowledge ATI does not sell it as an add-on in the after market...you have to get it with a computer. Thus, a digital tuner will only get you anything if you use an antenna to get over the air digital stations.
