It can't be that big of a deal or the Gov. would have created big processing plants to accept all the TV's when we switched to digital... When CRV's were still being made places did recycle them into new CRV's. Now no outlet for them so they got to do something.... I sold a CRV tv at my yard sale for $5 guy was from Mexico and guess what old TV's still work there! Next war we get in to drop a bunch of CRV's on them...
