Re: Pointless I agree When you're done living in Utopia and come back to the real world, you'll understand what it takes to transition a nationwide network.
Be proud of what you have in the NJ/NY area.. fine. However, no matter what you hint of and flash out under the radar to indicate your worthiness doesn't impress me that much.
The 3 per QAM just started happening in a relatively recent period of time when it comes to the world of a nationwide network. In order to compete and survive, you have to take what you have and get services to people that want them. I never once said that they were good quality.. but, for the purpose of HD, it still works.. and that's what they need to survive right now.
You do understand that the DirecTV didn't just flip a switch and make HD happen, right? ... it took years of planning and work to launch the sats. It also took Fios over a decade of pillaging and robbing states and customers of money and tax breaks to finally get around to building Fios. So, since we're talking about Comcast, it's all about them being greedy and the evil corporation, I suppose. (and people wonder why Comcast, and others, don't like talking about their plans becuase the moment they even squeak it out, customers think it's on the horizon and around the corner.
Also, for the record.. "I also never said ALL are 3 per QAM" is what you said. I said they all were not, and you said "NICE TRY"... and then said that they all came from the CMC, which is not true either.
Clearly, you know what you're talking about in your business.. I'd suggest you not embarrass yourself when it comes to what Comcast does. |
