Re: Go digital

said by MrChupacabra:

1.) Credit checks will need to be ran on all services to get them without a prepay. This could potentially turn away customers who want in on the basic cable setups so that they can skip the $150-$300 prepayment cost for setting up digital tiers of service.
FYI, in my area, Comcast doesn't do any credit checks and doesn't require any prepay/deposit; they'll give you any level of service you want, no questions asked, PROVIDED you do not have a previous outstanding balance with them.

Seems like you are also forgetting the minor fact of the converter boxes for digital being available. I haven't seen anything that says that the current FCC mandate for a standard channel scheme on cable can, or will be changed, which, I would think, puts a bit of a kink in the cable.
