MythTV/Comcast going all digital TV in Cambridge [OT]

[Randy Cole]

As someone who presently is receiving over the air, and cannot receive
all the DTV channels without reorienting the antenna and suffering
glitches (or needs to buy a CEA-909 Smart Antenna if I can find someone
who is selling a good one), (nor receive WMUR-9 or WENH-11 anymore),

And is considering a bundle or Satellite service,

And needs a DVR / PVR, but doesn't want to pay money for one that is
locked in to a specific service,



Since we know Comcrass and RCN are scrambling QAM, does FIOS broadcast
in clear QAM?

I assume with satellite you must use the converter boxes.

I know someone who has Direct-TV DVR, and had to buy a new one when they
changed their compression method.
