His point is some cable providers broadcast "basic cable" in analog over their cable systems. Cox in my area for example doesn't scramble basic and extended basic analog tiers. I get basic cable (eg TBS, USA, Spike etc) on all TVs even without a box. You only need a box if you want channels above 100 (the digital channels).

The Cable Co's offer the same digital channels and more. Remember the telco's and dish do not have majority of the locals...
