Only on BBR...

Only on BBR would commenters suggest that a $400 million dollar upgrade to digital and an expanded HD lineup be somehow considered a bad thing, even when they're not charging extra for it.

Given that most people already rent a cable box, the suggestion that this is done to get a few dollars a month from those relative few who don't is beyond stupid.

Because people lose out on analog service and have to rent a cable box. It's not favorable to a lot of people.

Why would I want an ad ridden box when analog cable works fine as it is. In my mind digital cable is defective by design.
