Re: [HD] HD costs extra? Do most programmers supply separate SD and HD (if available) feeds to Comcast, or do they just supply an HD feed that Comcast just downconverts to an SD version themselves?
If separate SD and HD feeds are provided, do programmers charge an extra fee for the HD version? |

It depends on the contract the cable or satellite provider has with the programming provider. Most programming providers make you get the SD feed before you can get the HD feed, however if you buy the SD feed, the HD feed is free. |
