 | [CA] Cox HSI San Diego gets Netflix SuperHD I just fired up the ol' PS3 and saw the quality go from 720p to 1080p to Super HD 1080p. It looks great! quality is def noticeable... closer to blu-ray. I love it! I'm in Central San Diego near SDSU, running Premier 32 mbps on an SB6180.
I checked on the netflix website & confirmed my ISP is ready for Super HD. |

 djdanskaRudie32Premium,MVM join:2001-04-21 San Diego, CA kudos:4 | Mine counts against it. It uses considerably more data on my tivo than before. But, they did just increase my cap from 250 to 300 Gb. |

I'd bet then this is why they increased bandwidth.... but if one uses this service much, I do not think it will compensate entirely. The goal of Cox (Id bet) then would be to push people to higher tiers and make the combined multi-vendor service more expensive for us. I do not think it should count against it technically, because it is not using the ISPs peering connections.... but CDN from Netflix that is inside Cox's network. |
