Grrr...We don't know stuff


But...If you're talking about digital CABLE, we've had that option for forever...Most people (at least all the people I know) choose not to have it

And...If you're talking about something else...Then...Umm...No? :D

Here in MI I can't get Comcast to give me non-digital cable anymore. So I bought an HD TV, upgraded the box, and basically gave them what they wanted.

For us the sound cuts out sometimes, things take a moment to register with the On Demand controls, the screen will pixelate sometimes, it just seems to need a little work. The internet is very fast but the cable television has some big problems. Personally the pros outweight the cons for me but I know quite a few people who liked the analog better.

i like having 24 recorded when i get home late and not have to worry about the vcr or dvdr power on off setting the timer is the disk any good
rewinding while you watch is nice
but i am in NY we have cablevision i think it is a little better than other parts or the country. could be cheaper though

okay. I know what he's on about. In england (and possibly other countries) we have what we call the digital viewers. They either have sky digital (the most popular with the most channels, pay monthly. Virgin media - similar but less channels or freeview - pay for the box and you get around 80 channels, no monthly payment needed. Then there's the people who just have the standard 4/5 channels. BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4, Channel 5. Now, soon, the people with only 4/5 channels are going to have to upgrade to one of the digtial viewing boxes or have no television viewing. That's the digital switchover. So know, your digital or you get nothing to watch. Just a stupid moneygrabbing idea targeting those people who can barely afford some kind of digital so they stick with what they have. (In case you're wondering, I'm with Sky.
