Bright House Networks - Legacy → Re: [CFL] DVR Upgrade

You just never know what might happen.....stick around

Good things happen to those who wait! lol

Let's hope before the new fall season....maybe? More tuners would be great especially with only 1 HDTV.

Let's hope Bright House doesn't charge extra for a extra Tuners since DirecTV, DISH, U-verse didn't charge extra for the extra tuners.

Would like to have seen more tuners a year ago not making us wait for this service.

Milking the old 2 tuner and now charging extra for more tuners would just be below the belt.

"Additional Tuner Fee: $1" x4, lol

But really, I can't see why they wouldn't charge extra for a multi-tuner box.

BHN doesn't market the fact that they have superior Samsung and Cisco models over the horribly outdated SA hardware, so the vast public doesn't know, and therefore, doesn't care. But you can bet they'll market "Now with 6 tuners!" What stops everyone from ditching the older DVRs? A fee.

Don't know enough about the history of what hardware satellite offered to know how/if they transitioned customers from limited-tuner hardware.

True to your first point. Second point other providers use the 4 or 6 Tuner as a selling point. They fit it into the promo you sign up for. They don't want to chase away any new potential customers by advertising -oh btw you have to pay a technology charge for new equipment and the new SAT we just sent to the moon. ATT gets you in the small print. Seems cable is following same channel but at a distance so as to kind of sort of differentiate themselves.
