DirecTV is setting the HD standards? HA HA!

I chuckled there for a bit.
I was speaking in regards to being a leading provider of HD. There are other issues in terms of quality with their service. Nobody does TrueHD yet so this provider may be the first and in that case they'd be "setting the standard" but as with my main point, they won't have any customers... so is that really standard setting?

You can never be too rich, too thin or have too much Bandwidth]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19488159 Wed, 21 Nov 2007 20:15:44 EDT Re: DOA http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19487135 Lumberjack : Yeah, this is over before it began. DirecTV is setting the standards for HD, albeit, low quality HD (if that's even possible to say). I can't see people buying DirecTV/cable w/HD to get regular channels then buying yet another service for HD movies...

However, HBO, Cinimax and the others all have "series" now and even if great only last two years then poof (except Surpranos - sp?). That being said if the selection is latest and greatest and cheaper than HBO + Cinimax combo, that might be the market.
