I signed up for dish back in the day for more HD and Dish had Voom.
Now I can see myself dropping dish and just going with Comcast.
Every HD channel I want is now available via comcast, except for HDnet.
Oh the hell what's 29 bucks a month? I'll stay for now and just drop down to one 211 ird.

Because Comcast is going all digital to open the bandwidth. Look up Project Calvary, World of More, and XFINITY. They are going through the country bit by bit. Soon 50mbps will be standard internet speed.

SDV Technology - Switched Digital Video - TWC has pretty much the same amount in our area, give or take a few (mainly unfortunately the NFL Network and Redzone) Originally Posted by am7crew Forced from Dish to Time Warner Cable to get my hometown Buffalo Sabres Games and the NewYork Yankees.

Comcast systems are reducing their analog channels to Limited Basic to free up bandwidth. Baltimore is eliminating several analog channels on Wednesday and adding 39 HD channels a week later. (MASN2 HD will be added Wednesday.)

And the PQ is fantastic even on the waste of signal channels like QVC/HSN-HD. No major compression that I can see.

nice, we have Charter here and they offer I think like 40 HD channels total and I dont see them investing in SDV anytime soon. Its a shame I would be heaven with Phillies comcast have those HD channel plus ondemand, cant beat that.
