Really fast internet speeds, triple play, interactive TV and games, and SA boxes. Now I find this article: Cablevision cooks up more HD channels By Mike Robuck Cablevision said yesterday that it will be spicing up its HD lineup with the addition of Food Network HD and HGTV HD. The new channels give Cablevision’s digital customers in its tri-state footprint a total of 44 high-definition programming choices. "These are great marquee additions to an iO TV HD lineup that has already doubled over the last year," said John Trierweiler, Cablevision's SVP of product management. "We know our iO TV customers will enjoy the opportunity to experience these leading lifestyle networks with the superior picture and sound of high-definition." Cablevision is competing against satellite and telco operators, but unlike its competitors, it does not charge more for HD-capable converter boxes or charge extra fees for HD programming. Just HOW DO THEY DO IT? Can they teach Comcast a lesson?
