He's spouting misinformation. There are a few encrytped OTA HD channels, because there's a company out there that sells HD "cable" via an antenna but all the major networks are free and clear. Think about it, for a second, when was the last time you heard of paying NBC for content? He's probably confusing OTA with QAM (the modulation for HD over cable), the encryption ratio on those channels varies greatly from cable company to cable company. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
