Re: Useless anyways!

5C encrypted content will not stream - but I have not come across anything 5C in the shows I watch yet.

And when it start you be the first to complain about it.

How about the fact I love my mythtv box that has dual hd tuners in it. It would be nice to be able to get cable cards for my box so I can record more then the 2 channels available on my cable box.

Right now I record my locals from OTA, I would like to be able to use my myth box more as a whole house system , which killing cable cards will hurt.

This is why I am waiting on our own cable boxes with the downloadable conditional access system. I know there will be more people like myself who want more options whether it be a computer or a set top box.

Absolutely not a single clue what you meant there.

All I was comparing was the fact that I DO NOT want to spend $599+ (whatever), when my DVR is around $10 a month - and if something BETTER comes out - i trade it up.

I also have a media center PC at home. The lack of true HD capturing (i know, the technical limits of capturing uncompressed HD video) makes me stick also with a DVR. Once i've recorded the shows, i can them play them back and capture then in all their HD beauty to my MCE.

Now once someone figures out how to use the firewire instead of the tuner to actually VIEW the program material (currently viewing is done via the tuner card in MCE, and when you record it uses the firewire) - i'll be set.
