Re: Don't worry, TWC

There are close to 30 national hi def's right now (that includes movie channels) There are at least a dozen or more stations that will be starting HD programming this summer/fall (SciFI HD is supposed to launch around June), most of those channels are doing so because DirecTV has agreed to broadcast them where the cable companies wouldn't.

Personally I have no doubt there will be at least 75 HD channels by the end of the year (and probably a 100 if you included pay-per-view). The reason the channels don't exist right now is because none of cable companies or satellite had the capacity or the willingness to broadcast more.

DirectTV, in that ad said, "what, you don't believe us ...that's what they said about the flux capacitor ...."

Do they not know the flux capacitor isn't real? But TWC is actually right. To claim to have 3 times the capacity is obviously ridiculous.
