Re: Knowing Apple...

This is dumb. An external box the provides any tv with these capabilities with a universal remote that controls both devices seamlessly would be really cheap and could actually gain a market if it was a good service.

Same could be said for any feature in the TV, whether it's cablecard, ATSC tuner, etc.

while a little of this could be good, I think overall it is bad for the consumer... as it is, right now, there is a healthy supply of HD content, Verizon is offering over 100 HD channels and it won't be long before the cable companies catch up. My feeling is, internet video, fine for the internet but I say, except for an occasional exception, "get off my TV". The problem is, unlike previous providers, now you may have different companies with different approaches vying for your television and in the end, I can see, mix and match capatibility, rising costs or poorer packages for cable tv since, maybe, less will order it. NetTV (if you want to call it that) either being good, not so good or downright awful, companies changing their minds and leaving us in the lurch and cable tv providers not wanting to take another chance to offer what they do now case of our initial change of mind should it happen.

message to apple.. message to providers.. I want my triplay, I won't move away from cable, ok i might try this if I could afford the tv but I know a good thing when I see it. My thank you for fast internet, a grand choice of HD channels & reliable phone service for around $100; im signed on, this apple thing is just icing on the cake.
