[quote=ocrenter]cable and satellite services are a huge scam. you can now get crystal clear HDTV right off your antenna. yet with all of these services, you got to pay extra for the HD.
as for just TV habits in general. is there REALLY a need for 200 channels into each household? I find myself barely getting in 30min to an hour of TV if at that. [/quote]
I avoid commercials, I time shift with Tivo. But I can afford my tivo bill.
Time Warner advertises that they don’t charge extra for HD. But they charge so much in the first place that they don’t need to.
And heaven help you if you want to use a Tivo box and cable cards to get your HD – half of their HD channels are switched digital – which you can’t get with a cable card – only one of their crappy boxes.
