once Rogers gets everyone off of analog TV, it will free up a lot more bandwidth for digital channels. .. of course they get to charge you for the terminal, etc as well, which is retarded, but it's pretty much the general shift of many market places to a services based business model.

Nothing is free or included any more... I wish they would build digital terminals into TV's already, because it's pretty sad that you pay for a TV, then pay for something that lets you watch TV, then pay for the program guide so you can pick a show to watch, then pay for the channels you watch... bleh.

I'm seriously considering cutting back my TV services. I don't like how I'm paying over a hundred bucks to see shows repeated on 10 channels, having rogers change the channels around to absolute retardedness, PVR programming guide that works sporadically on my wonderfully slow connection.

I'm glad my money is buying new astroturf and videoscreens for baseball--a sport that's unbearable without vast quantities of beer.
