Re: For HD customers this stinks

So I can get 2 HD streams with this new wiz band service, then count me out. With my DirecTV HD Tivo I can be recording two streams just with that one box while watching another HD program with my TV's HD tuner. Think I'll sticking with the service I have now thank you very much SBC, not!
Totally agree. Two HD Tivos along with one standalone HD reciever. I count 5 streams. 24Meg isn't going to cut it.

Re: For HD customers this stinks

Compare that to the 622mbps down, 155mbps up that the FiOS fiber is capable of to see how truly pathetic that offering really is.

It is possible to support a 30mbps net connection, stream ~66 high def programs and have over 10 VoIP lines going at once without saturating the line. And even that assumes that they don't take advantage of the built in RF video overlay frequency, or employ some crazy multicasting techniques to allow even more simultaneous channels.

... and when you take into consideration the interference from HAMs, atmospheric, electrical and other forms of MF/HF EMI VDSL sounds even worse.
