TWC and your Cable Company / Re: TWC gone digital
« on: February 01, 2010, 02:19:00 AM »Gotcha!Aaron your claim that nobody uses HD is far from the truth. All new TVs today are HDTVs and most are quite less costly than before. You can pick up a 22in TV for nearly 200 bucks. People buying these TVs (and there are a lot of them) want to get the best picture and who can blame them! I would much rather pay 10 more bucks a month to watch HD than analog.Martin, I think you mistunderstood my point. Everyone has different income levels. Between my mom's house and my dad's house, our cable bills are well over $300... even after talking it down. Believe it or not, even $10 a month is not something either of them can do (or are willing to for that matter). Some people can easily afford it, and good for them. And yes, I am well aware that costs are going down with time, as technology that was once thought out of reach becomes barely within our sight and this technology becomes more readily available. The cheapest HDTV's I have been able to find are $500... and they were at Staples for Black Friday. Believe you me, if I or my parents had that kind of money, I would be searching for every last legacy STAR north of the 45th parallel.
I did not say that no one uses it. I was simply saying that it is not as readily available as it should be yet.
Wait combined the cable bill is $300? Seems a bit high. What services does that include?

TWC and your Cable Company / Re: Who here gets TWC HD?
« on: February 01, 2010, 02:11:01 AM »I don't get why it's still not available in the one place TWC HQ s located.Lack of bandwidth and lack of demand. Once your cable company gets most major HD channels then you might see it appearI haven't heard any plans of it being available here in the future either.
