Fox and CBS. (Not NBC, not ABC.) We have Adelphia which recently became TimeWarner Cable.
Looking into DirecTV.

you'll regret it just browse the screen caps and bitrate measures on AVS typically 30-40% less datastream than cable. hence, much worse picture, especially in sports |

No HD local channels w/ DirecTV unless you get a seperate HD antenna or OTA box. |

HD lite for CBS & Fox (Hd lite refers to the signal b'cast by DirecTv) NBC, PBS, ABC, & a few others OTA.
"you'll regret it
just browse the screen caps and bitrate measures on AVS
typically 30-40% less datastream than cable.
hence, much worse picture, especially in sports "
Until Comcast can provide me NFL Sunday Ticket, I'll stay with D. I'll take 8 more games available in HD lite over sd anyday.

the ONLY downside of cable compared to directv. that said, i routinely don't even watch games in SD... im that addicted to good HD |
