Didn't Mark J report once on some Chicago cabler digitally compressing ALL of their channels, even OTA stations, basically telling everybody to get a box like with satellite or FiOS / U-verse?
RCN has been doing this in all the other areas they're in, and my little corner of the world is next: http://www.rcn.com/morehd This is sick. I know plenty of people who don't want a box, don't need a box, and aren't about to let some gwelb into their houses to install a box. And there are many more like Dad Jersey and moi who have multiple TVs and/or recording devices that are going to be worthless in this kind of sitch. Happily, we are still one of the few places where cable systems compete in the same territory, and Service Electric isn't planning to do this any time soon (http://www.sectv.com/LV). -- BOB --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ TV or Not TV ....
