[quote Frank][quote BigGuynRusty]... what little HD content Time Warner carries, you can only receive with a TW HD-DVR box, at an extra 30 bucks a month, that of course is only the broadcast channels...

Are you sure about that? I read somewhere that the broadcast channels could be tuned in with the basic TW cable package, assuming you have a HD tuner.
Well, I shouldn't say TW, we are just switching over from Adelphia, and all the HD channels are encrypted, and you have to use their HD-DVR box to receive anything HD. According to one of the executives, the complete changeover will take about a year, my email will change for the fifth time, the channel lineup will change, and of course pricing changes. They really screwed up this last weekend, two page color ad offering a $30 high speed internet, and a $30 digital cable for six months. Problem is that Adelphia subscribers are frozen, and the new subscriber system is totally hosed, no one can sign up! So I was stuck at $120, because my old deal had been cut off by the changeover. Finally got ahold of a tech that knew some codes, brought me down to $80, she said she would call as soon as the $60 deal is available.
