    Time to jump ship?

    ADVERTS 1
    Is it time to jump ship to get the HD we deserve and want. Direct TV has the new HD that they said they would up and running today. I think it’s about time to show Comcast that we want HD not just triple play!!

    I'm with you, I'm calling D* to schedule my new service! Tired of waiting for Comcast to give us some HD. Here in Seattle, we have't had any new HD since March, and nothing coming from what anyone at Comcast can tell me. Already said goodbye for internet with Verizon's Fios internet. Now TV!!!!

    Ce la vie Comcast!!!!!!

    I'm going to stick with Comcast for now since I have a triple-play bundle discount... however if things haven't improved by the time my discount is over (May 08), I'll be shopping to switch to another service.

    Now wait a minute! I'm pretty sure the CEO of Comcast has stated numerous times that "Comcast has all the important HD channels that anybody would want" . Obviously, you only THINK you want those new HD channels that Direct TV has added. Seriously, I do think Comcast is starting to get the message, but they apparently have severe bandwidth limitations in many of their markets.

    Wink Comcrap

    Who would want more, well I have had my HDTV for well over 2 yrs and I want all available channels why I have an HDTV!! Why would anyone but an hdtv just to watch Comcast ceo says f him I want my HDTV and anyone with a hdtv should also. Is that not why we bought them was for the best picture and sound the time for the programming is now not someday. I WANT MY HDTV FROM COMCAST. I am not bundled with the other comcrap so I guess I have to leave to get whit I should be getting from them.

    I still have a little faith in Comcast.. they've been adding a few HD channels every quarter here.

    They're supposedly (BIG MAYBE) going to a few channels here soon. The big push won't probably come until sometime next year. They're supposedly adding the DVS here and once they get it fully implemented they'll do the big push. Big question for me is, do I want to wait anywhere from 3 or 6 months to a year to get more HD? I going to Magnolia A\V today to check out D*'s new signals and see if they are as good as people are saying!!!

    Will let you know my take on them!!!

    Are you sure you're not a shill for DirecTV? Your post had nothing to do with Comcast as it is today.
