    For those of you that have Directv, they have started to put up their new HD channels. Very nice quality!

    Details!

    How many? Which ones? I'm close to making the switch from Comcast and this might put me over the edge. ;)

    comcast sucks.
     
  10. The channels are full 1080i, but the shows aren't all HD. It's the same as ESPN HD (with bars on the sides of SD content) or TNT HD (with stretched SD content).
