Re: Am I missing something here?

Comcast is not wasting this opportunity to cash in on the confusion by telling people that the only way they'll be able to continue to watch TV is to sign up for cable, and not just basic cable either...

Yeah, the big "slanted" cable TV sales pitch begins.

Oh really?
And, I suppose you'll now be able to produce one shred of proof to back up that statement?
A link..or anything to show that comcast has EVER made that claim?

I won't be holding my breath..Doc.

The fact of the matter is, Comcast has ran extensive commercials telling customers that they don't need to be running out buying new boxes and tv's.

Hey, there is as much proof of that as there is of anything you post. No such 'extensive commercials' were run here, unless you mean the ones which imply that you have to sign up for cable to continue watching TV, which is exactly what I posted.

Nice try though. I'll save the next direct mail piece with the proof of what I posted. You won't respond to that though since you never do when discredited.

Had you actually read what I posted, the advertising materials involve Comcast using the DTV conversion and resulting confusion to hook people into signing up for unnecessary, expensive digital cable, not buy TVs or NTSC-ATSC converter boxes. Your love affair with Comcast seems to have impaired your reading comprehension.
