Verizon executives seem to have a business plan that provides more premium channels in HD while Comcast has gone the opposite route. I do not see Verizon changing their viewpoint and we will all have to wait till later this year when they hopefully roll out more HD mpeg4 channel.
I see where directv is about to add 5 new HD channels also,including BBCA,and nat geo wild which we already have,i think they are also adding disney jr HD ionHD and BEin sports channel also which i have seen a lot of people asking about here.
