Cablevision doesn't charge extra fees because their prices are inflated to begin with! |

Was thinking the same thing, no extra hardware charges for HD, but in order to keep getting the 7 - 8 channels they just moved from analog to digital required me to pay for another box ($6.50) and some other fee ($1.50) just because I now have a second box.

On the Direct Tv first box is free even if it's a DVR each box after that is $4.99. The drv fee is $5 for any number of them.
Direct tv should take Universal HD out of the HD extra pack for the Olympics |

well in comparison, directv makes you pay for HD, then on top of that for extra hd channels you have to pay, then on top of that you have to buy the freaken HD box for 300 dollars, then on top of that you have to pay for the dvr portion of it seprate. The cable company doesn't do that.
The only reason that I have directv it's because we have 4 boxes 2 in NJ where I live and 2 in PA where my parents are, 1 account. |

That's technically illegal (definately against the TOS). That is like me saying that I am absulutely pissed that the local cable co is moving to digital because the illegal analog cable hook-up I have had for 8 years won't work after Feb. |
