what's with the lack of HD channels?
i think I've had ONE new HD channel (TNT) added to the whopping lineup of 14 or so in the past 6 months.. wtf?
Shit there still no ABC HD channel here yet... so even Monday Night Football is out.. isn't this shit supposed to be standard by now? |

What's supposed to be standard is digital, not HD. The same bandwidth for an HD channel will accomodate numerous standard channels and other services, so many bandwidth owners have chosen to go that route. The primary thing the legislation is attempting to do is kill analog, not provide HD...

I've had HDTV and have been bitching about the same thing for months.

Bell Expressvu has 27 HDTV channels in Canada. Not sure if they are all true HDTV or if some are upconverted though. You have to pay an extra $10 a month for them though so I haven't bothered yet.
So I paid $299 for my HDTV receiver just so I could watch one HD channel. What a waste. |

I used to have Voom here in the U.S. however they went out of business May 1st. That's the bad news... the good news is I picked up Dish Network who bought the fucked up bankrupt Voom for 200million and will be adding more hi-def to their lineup so they say.

I have HD through my local cable company and it blows
Half the shit they program isn't in HD so you have those bars on the side. Waste of money IMO. It's too early.. probably be good in 2 years or so.
