The DBS satellite system works very similar to what you point out in SDV. You only get the channels you request, which send voltage to the lnbf to switch transponders. |

Satellite doesn't need to do that; they aren't running internet and phone down the same RG-6. |

said by Mactron :said by hopeflicker :Typical marketing schemes  Very misleading and on the verge on lying. It's numbers hype. They all play the game thinking we the consumer are clueless. Out of the ~150 channels I have, I watch 6-8 at the most. The rest are trash. Will trash in HD be better?.. No kidding. 400-800 HD channels? I only get about 200 SD channels. You're telling me there will be MORE HD channels than than SD ones? Hundreds of never-before-seen channels are just going to materialize and start broadcasting in HD?
Marketing Bullshit. They should be required to explicitly define the word "channel" in any advertisement that tells how many "channels" a provider offers. PPV, on-demand, and Sunday Ticket/MLB Extra Innings/NHL Center Ice are NOT channels.

I love Lucy in HD, Gilligan's Island (colourized, AND edited for time) in HD, and more commercials than you can shake a stick at!
All for a low, low price of $50 / month! |

That is if they have an HD Camera...
else it'll probably be upsized to fit the screen resolution. |

Not every one watches the same programs. Of dtv 100 I would only watch about 15 at the most. |
