It's ten dollars extra a month.  Go on, splurge.

1)  The set needed a couple of hours to acclimate itself.  It looked much better two hours after I posted.

I'm just curious if you consumed any alcoholic beverages during that time period.  It has been my experience that a lot of things look better after a couple hours of drinking ;D

Comcast HD is free as long as you already have their digital package, it's $10 more a month if you want the DVR, and I have friends that have satellite, and they aren't living the in the streets due to excessive HD bills, so eleventy bajillion dollars may be a bit of an over-statement.

Nope.  Haven't had a drink in months.

For me, moving to HD would take a good amount of effort.  I'd have to replace the DirecTV receivers as well as move away from Tivo altogether since DirecTV no longer offers Tivo.  They still support the DirecTivos out there but you can only get DirecTV DVRs now.  We like our upgraded/customized DirecTivos.  I'd have to upgrade our dish, too, since that one isn't going to pick up the transponders that carry the HD channels.

Plus the only thing I watch that is broadcast in HD is the NFL.  The Sunday Ticket (which we have) HD addon is $100.  Hell no.

WOW!  What a pain... another reason not to have satellite.  When I got my HD tv, I called comcast and said,  'hey, I now have and HD tv', they said 'here's a new cable box free of charge, and you now get all of the HD channels we offer'.  Couldn't have been easier.
