I don't buy genuine software anymore (not within the past year, at least) But sometimes it comes with stuff that i get on ebay.

Well, it's kind of hard to read when the font is this small (ok, smaller than that). And I've been SO accomodated to metro forecast/regional forecast (or 3 day forecast)/precip/thunder (severe weather alerts)/radar and sattelite we've seen over the last 5 years.

Besides, why are satellite viewers gypped of an LDL from what I've seen?

If you see the HD Satellite LF in true HD, then the font size is perfectly fine. ;)

We don't have a Star. The HD LF runs completely from Atlanta.

Just like most people like the HD LF, most people also hate the LDL. You must be the polar opposite of the majority. :P

I just hate my LDL, since it signals my Intellistar is up and running.   :furious:

I like the satellite LDL because it's fun bouncing through all of the cities.

I'll like this HD transition if:

They keep the SD satellite what it is, so I can enjoy my favorite LF
They don't turn skytracker into some tilt-o-matic carnival ride eye candy radar (eg: Carl Parker, Kelly Cass, Betty Davis, etc, having false sweep lines to show NWS radars, etc)

And looking at that HD STAR, why did the icons go poof on the current conditions?

once again...SD & HD Satellite Local Forecast are completely separate from each other.

What do you mean about the icons going "poof"? The icons are there; they're just a bit small in the internet videos.

Nah, TWC will probably redesign the SD one and screw it up.
