HBO has nothing compelling these days. Starz is just mediocre and Showtime is the pits except for Dexter. I rent movies I want to see when they come out, so IF and when they ever make it to the movie channels, I've already seen them. Not into sports outside what you can get from the networks. Other additional channels like Sleuth, Hallmark Movie, Fox Movie, etc. I just never watch. And when and if you get HD, you, if like me, tend not to watch anything that isn't. So, I'm going back to where I started, A200 DVR advantage which will cover my one DVR (622) fee and locals. Over a year, I just cannot forsee the value of spending $480.00 for something I will only watch occasionally.
