<title>Questions about DVR offered by Comcast</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20495269</link>
<description><![CDATA[I am considering on switching to Comcast from Dish Network.  I guess I am just a bit tired of loosing my TV whenever it rains.  Besides, I am ready to pull the plug on the analog phone from BellSouth/ATT.

Anyway, I found out that the DVR offered by Comcast in my area is the Motorola DCT 6412.  I asked the Comcast customer service about it, but I would like to get opinions from persons outside Comcast, just to be safe.

The issue is this.  I have two TV's, one upstairs and a second one downstairs.  I would like to use my DVR on both TV's just like I do currently w/ Dish Network.  That is to say, I want to continue being able to record TV shows and movies on either TV.  I also want to watch these recorded movies, TV shows, etc. on either TV, regardless of location (upstairs, downstairs).  

I know that the Motorola DCT 6412 is a dual tuner, but do not know if this means that I can do what I described above.  Could any of you clarify this for me?  Thanks.]]></description>

<title>Comcast inks deal with MGM HD</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20495540</link>
<description><![CDATA[Comcast subscribers will soon get a taste of MGM HD's 4,100-movie deep library, as the channel just inked a deal with the cable giant for both its linear channel and VOD service. Of course, the question of how much, if at all, extra it will cost to get the channel and when it will be squeezing onto QAMs near you have yet to be answered, but for now we're inclined to give more HD "choices" a glass half-full lean.
