| 4 Streams but only 2 HD
Will AT&T eventually permit more then 2 streams of HD to be recorded at a residence? With so many HD channels, competition in my home to record programs in HD at the same time is fierce.
The only good thing about TWC, each box can record 2 HD streams. More boxes = More HD streams you can record. |

clubs: | I'm assuming (perhaps incorrectly) that the 3rd HD stream would require pair bonding which is technically more hardware (copper pair and VRAD slot) versus just software changes for THDVR and 2nd HD stream.
I certainly hope you are correct. |
