| its not just the yokels It's not just the yokels who will throw a fit. I will throw a fit too. Now I need three boxes on two TV's, and I have to get one with a serial port just to have slightly less than what I have now with no boxes?? That's nonsensical. I have a TiVo and a TV with pip, and none of that would work right with digital. It's all analog. The hybrid model they have now works well, beacuse most people don't want a box on every TV. Most people I know have digital cable, but only on one or two TVs, not all 4 or 5 or 6 most people seem to have. Now these things are all going to be wasting power, doing a job that the built in tuners did before. Cripes. Now I could see a de-fattening of the expanded basic to the higher up digital channels, there is a lot of fat in there, but the essentials need to stay analog. That has already happened to a certain extent. |
