Re: Why not?

The satellite companies still also have significantly less customers than the cable companies (despite being cheaper for higher level services) while the cable companies know that analog customers will ditch them in droves when they are forced to go back to having a settop box or buying a new tv.

Well, with DTV adding half a million subscribers last quarter alone, that is changing fast. Ever seen their commercial where the people are readin fan letters? Notice the number change from "11 Million fans and counting" to "12 Million fans and counting"? I see a ton of dishes in this area. In some neighborhoods, roughly 2 out of 3 have a visible dish.

I just bought my first house... I can now ditch Comcrap and go back to DTV. I was getting tired of paying $66 a month for 70 analog channels, 10 digital channels, and watching all their lame commercials about how great their "digital" service is.
