Re: They should

I think he's talking about AT&T's continued technical incapability of offering more than one HD steam simultaneously. I wish MS and AT&T would has just used an open standard like DVB-IPI instead of coming up with their own half-assed IPTV system.

Exactly. I just don't see how they can compete without gross compression and slow internet speeds.

I have Dish, had Comcast. Never had to take 20 seconds to change a channel. With Comcast it's instant and Dish about two seconds.

I understand Comcast is having some compression issues itself right now, but they still offer as many HD sets as you're willing to get a tuner for. Plus their ability to upgrade, lose analog and grab enough bandwidth to lose the compression is much simpler than what ATT will have to do.
