Introduction
Technology change is ever subject to development and underdevelopment in countries these days. The future is also predicted and planned for with the basis of technology. For instance, the world convention on technology has reached an agreement that by 2015 all the analog television sets should be replaced by digital television sets. This is so to enable the digitization of information in the media industry so that television viewers can receive broadcasts that are digitized. This transition may be challenging to individual countries especially those in the developing world. The people in these environments require more information about the transition and its possible outcomes to come to terms with this, afford and even embrace it as a whole. The negative sides of technology usually count much more than the positive sides because they might be costly. However, with the technological change on the television and motor cars, the quality of life is improving substantially (White).
Main body
New car models and the television digitization process are playing an important part in improving people’s lives. In this era of many cars on the roads, people are looking for cars that will make their lives comfortable all around, say economically, physically, and socially. The car is expected to be economic on fuel consumption, high speed, comfortable to travel in for a long time without filling exhausted, use modern technology, and does not involve many expenses on repair and safe either way (McPheat). To fulfill these requirements vehicle manufacturing and assembling companies have embarked on technology transformations. This has seen companies such as the Great Wall of China come up with various car models for specific markets on the global scene. Japanese companies such as Toyota are also coming up with long-lasting, technologically operated vehicles and adaptive motor cars for particular markets on the global mark. Generally, life becomes interesting with new car models with unique characteristics (Arsham).
Following the replacement of analog television sets with digital ones, life is quite easy, simple, and interesting. Many viewers of televisions can access several television channels unlike before. This means that they have a variety of entertainment they have to select from. Moreover, they can also choose the channel that satisfies their news requirements. The television sets that are digitized are also no longer bulky as they used to be in the past. Broadcasting companies have also an easy time when they do it in the digitized environment. Countries have even been prompted to set their deadline, such as by December 2012 to comply with the international agreement. These efforts leave the quality of life greatly improved (Green).
Conclusion
These entire technological transformations are taking place amid complaints ranging from the environment to the value of the products. Production companies both in Europe, the United States of America, and even Asia have not been able to come up with clear strategies on carbon reduction in the atmosphere as well as ways of assuring their customers that their new technologically improved models of cars and electronic sets at fair prices are genuine. The customers are sometimes worried about the value of the items. The transition from analog to digital is all-around expensive to the person acquiring the new technology. The person may not have a way to dispose of the old television or may not be in a position to purchase all that come with digital television. At the same time, some car models are expensive to maintain due to expensive spare parts and maybe may require very expensive professionals to service them. Nonetheless, the technological changes make work easier and faster than we could have had it without technology (Calloway). Globalization is one of the positive effects that life experiences through liberalized economies or markets. Hence, technological transformation should be embraced but with due management of the negative sides that may come along.
