HBO had their panties in a bunch because they thought that all of their movies/shows would instantly show up online and be pirated.

I used to be able to get right around this, when OnDemand was unencrypted, then you could watch on any QAM tuner in the house, including one hooked up to a PC that can record ClearQAM...

If I ever were to pick a premium movie service, it sure wouldn't be HBO, no HD OnDemand would be one of if not the top reason. Premiums are also $20/month here!!! It works out to slightly less when you have Digi preferred w/ 1 premium, but "a la carte" each premium is 19.99. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21125030 Wed, 17 Sep 2008 12:45:27 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123669 BDCat : AIUI, HBO pulled their HD VOD from all suppliers, not just Comcast. Never heard anything about a dispute (that doesn't mean there wasn't one, though).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123669 Wed, 17 Sep 2008 07:56:52 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123564 cypherstream : I think HBO pulled their HD-VOD content from Comcast after some kind of dispute. For now you have to watch HBO in SD when using VOD. So I DVR what I like from HBO HD like that new series True Blood, which is excellent.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123564 Wed, 17 Sep 2008 07:05:19 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123256 IPPlanMan : We used to have HBO on Demand here in Washington D.C....

If anyone hears anything, I'd like to know too...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123256 Wed, 17 Sep 2008 01:57:57 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123069 moulder3 : Does Comcast carry HBO On Demand in HD in any market? I signed up with Comcast because they HEAVILY advertised their HD VOD offerings. Now I find out that while they have Starz HD VOD...no HBO?!? (I'm in Boston)

Does anyone know if/when this will be added?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21123069 Wed, 17 Sep 2008 00:53:10 EDT
