| But in MOST areas.....
...Still only 2 per household at the same time.
I find myself often in the situation where the livingroom DVR is recording from two HD channels, and me in my office/computer room wanting to surf on another TV.... although I believe in some areas they are up to 4 HD streams now, that limitation has kept me from trying it.
I have 50 channels with TWC, and I'd like to be able to record two, and still watch a third one please

It's WHICH channels. Sure, being able to say you have 200 HD channels would be great, but if 127 of them are home shopping networks, who cares?

word
I was so po'ed when SE Cable decided to add QVC HD. We need Discovery HD so I can see Mythbusters in HD instead of going over to my friend's house (he has FiOS). |

It's easy to shout that you have 100 HD channels if getting 50 of them is going to cost you $50 a month extra. |

For the most part they do actually have a nice selection of HD channels. They made it to 100 with the recent addition of Disney/ABC/ESPN channels.
They're still missing the HD Viacom channels (Comedy Central, MTV, Spike, CMT, etc) although they announced that those would be coming sometime this year. They have quite a few HD channels that even DirecTV doesn't have.
A large chunk of their channels are premium HD channels and their East/West counterparts. Its nice if you are into premiums but would be better if they just got the HD VOD going for those.

The U300 package comes with Showtime, The Movie Channel, and Starz as well as others for $20 more per month than U200. Not a bad deal.
At least they're actually normal HD channels, DirecTV's count usually includes 30 PPVHD channels! |

This is comcast in my area. You get more for your money if you do have HBO or MAX with Uverse. With Comcast, you get 1 HD HBO. What if they're not showing pr0n on this HBOHD, you're out of luck. |

1 edit | waiting for the viacom hd channels
I really only care about the viacom channels coming to hd like comedy central(i would like to see that come before the new south park season starts but i dont see that happening)and others come out in hd then i will be satisfied. I know they singed a deal with at&t but its probably going be a while before I see them.  |
