I can get all my HD channels through one wire, along with phone and high speed internet. On the other hand, it apparently takes about 12 satellites to get all the channels down to a single customer, WITH a 33% cut in HD resolution.

Cable companies get their channels from satellites and then distribute them over their cables. So, exactly how are wires better?

That's why wires are always better and more reliable than wireless.

Maybe in 50 years, wireless tech will outperform wired tech.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19230981 Wed, 10 Oct 2007 15:16:07 EDT Re: sux http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19230961 KrK : Hey I like some of that Crap :D that isn't on OTA networks :D]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19230961 Wed, 10 Oct 2007 15:11:19 EDT Re: sux http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19230878 whocares : why not go back to rabbitt ears? and save your $$$]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19230878 Wed, 10 Oct 2007 14:57:17 EDT Re: sux http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19230659 KrK : I said years ago that by the time the switchover to HD is complete, TV will cost us 3-4x what it used to cost.
