Good stuff...

We were all glad to see the new HD channels show up this morning after some snags last week. They're all MPEG4, too, and look great. Most can't tell the difference between them and the OTA equivalents.

Many of us have been testing the new On-Demand service, and it's "pretty good." Lots of choices, even though it's still only in beta. The drawback, of course, is that you have to download over your broadband connection. With Standard-Def stuff you can easily watch in real-time as it downloads with my 6 meg connection. HD content takes a bit longer.

Regardless - good stuff for D*.
