| lol Comcast shouldn't be talking in the Freedom Region. They have 26 HD channels in NNJ and 37 in Philly..compared to the 100+ Verizon carries in both areas.
And like Verizon, I'd estimate that about the same proportion of Comcast's HD On Demand is the same crap as well. |

Comcast sucks for HD. If your an HD Enthusiast, you do not want Comcast as your provider. For many of us though, we have no choice.
They do however make a good broadband internet / phone provider. HD is just not their specialty. Unless you live in one of those 'blessed' systems in center city Chicago, Boston, or Hershey.
They have a lack of consistency. Some systems have 60 HD channels, some have 20 HD channels. That's way to wide a window. But even the best system with 67 or so HD channels doesn't match Verizon's 100 or DirecTV's 100+. Time for them to pull a stick out of their arrogant ass. |

1 edit | Just to point out the huge variance, Comcast in Boston now has 80 HD channels. |

Comcast could have more HD, but they are for some reason holding onto their analog and not going totally switched. and every time a cable company wants to go switched you get a few hundered crybabies saying its not right to require boxes. yet every pay video competitor to comcast requires a box for each set.

Well, either that or drop their prices. The last thing they want is a price war. These companies almost collude to avoid it.
Are they going to simply allow subs to leave, or drop their prices?
