"LG Abandons ATSC 3.0, Signaling Troubles for NextGen TV Market"

LG has announced that its new TVs will not support the ATSC 3.0 standard next year due to a "challenging and uncertain patent landscape." ATSC 3.0, also known as Nextgen TV, is a next-generation broadcast format that offers features like 4K TV, HDR, Dolby Atmos, and interactive apps. LG's decision comes after losing a patent fight with a company holding multiple ATSC 3.0 patents. Other TV options with ATSC 3.0 support include Sony's A90K OLED, LG's G2, and select models from Hisense and Samsung.
