I'm paying $16.99 a month for HBO. That's like 10 crappy fuzzy non-HD channels and 2 HD channels.

What kind of bullshite is this about. Who even watches TV that's non-HD nowadays.

Seems like just another way to rape their customers.

I'll be canceling all this shite come Monday.

My parents' cable is through Cox in New Orleans. They have probably 12-15 premium HD channels.

Of HBO. Because it seems to me there are two. And then 10 non-HD HBO channels. I'm confused why these offerings aren't all in HD.

So I'm paying a premium for something they can't provide. Gotcha.

Sounds like you were lazy and didn't bother to understand what you were paying for before you did it.

Comcast only gives me 1 HBO channel in HD...but I only pay $5/month so it's fine by me when I can just play anything in HD On Demand.
