channels local

How many of these channels are local versions of of the main channels. IF Direct tv is counting say every version of abc in this number ,Then I would say that is not right.

The 85 is national channels, and not regional local broadcast channels. But like a previous poster pointed out, they count every national Sunday NFL game as a separate channel, which is an obvious distortion because they aren't true channels but PPV broadcasts.

Yeah it's all spin.

Even comcast uses their VOD like it's a "channel" in their ads too.

But beyond this "promise", does it really matter how many channels of HD a provider has? Shouldn't it really be about how much HD content a provider is capable of providing? You can have 100 HD channels, but have minimal HD content, or you can have 10 HD channels and have a ton of HD content. If I cared, I'd prefer the latter.
