Re: 2/17/2009 - All DIGITAL TV Transition Discussions go here
In my area there was a recent article in our local paper about this.
Basically it said Cable companies can do whatever they want. A smaller MSO in our area is going to digital only. You will require a box on every non digital TV with that operator. However they specifically said Comcast will still have analog channels available. It did not mention how many or what analog channels Comcast will have, but it goes to show you that the Operator can do what they please.
I'm hoping that Expanded basic service goes all digital. We could really use the room as our puny 750 MHz system just doesn't cut it anymore in a world of HD, broadband and telephony. Our area seems pretty resistant when it comes to moving channels to digital only. It's early in the year however, and soon they will be pressured to get bandwidth from somewhere. |
