what does one hd stream mean? Does that mean that like with MOST satellite, you can only watch one hd channel at a time throughout the whole house. If so I could see this being a problem in a few years, but now most homes only have one hdtv, if that and I'd take their 700 channels over comcast's 250 anyday If I could get UVERSE here. Unfortunately I'm stuck waiting for FIOS and at that it will be 2011 before the begin work on the fiber here. |

1 edit | No one "sucked" anyone in. Great thing about Competition, is that a person is able to choose from any number of providers (satellite, CATV), and decide.
I myself choose CATV over Satellite, due to choices in viewing options, no Dish on the house or yard, and no external antenna, or paying for CATV for the extras that are not on Satellite.
And as for your comment of getting sucked in, only those that do not read through the terms, or pay attention to the services, would only think that they did.
And, what really gets me, is the number of people that go into a CATV provider forum, and Troll about Satellite, or the competition to impress others. |

Try and call me a troll all you want, I have WOW cable, but I can't stand ignorance, and seeing some of the dumb comments posted in this thread just shows how ignorant some are to other choices. |

Utica, MI | What difference does it make. There is no law saying I can't post here. I have to provide support to Comcast customers in my family, therefore, I'll read and post if necessary in any and all Comcast forums as I see fit. |

said by mikedz4 :what does one hd stream mean? Does that mean that like with MOST satellite, you can only watch one hd channel at a time throughout the whole house. I can do FOUR HD streams at once from DirecTV. (OK technically, watch 2 & record another 2) I've NEVER heard of only being able to do just ONE from either DirecTV OR DISH Network for that matter. As long as you have enough of the boxes, you can do as many HD streams in your house as you want. (& as you're willing to pay $5 for each extra box monthly. |

I dont watch my Comcast HD now, sure not going to make a difference if I cant watch more than one with at&t. Plus I'll be saving some money which is always good 
I wonder if there guide has an ad like Comcasts?

You can play games, view pics and has the Yellow Book built into it. You can also customize to show only the channels you want to view, instead of all of them. |
