My latest bill from Comcast says that they are going to start
encrypting the "Limited Basic" channels on September 24th. More info

They are talking about free converters/Cable Cards for a year or two
depending on my level of service. After that it looks, I will have
to rent Comcast owned equipment (adapter, set top box, or Cable Card)
for every TV/tuner in my house. Whether they call it equipment
rental or additional outlet fees, Comcast will now get extra money for
every TV/tuner even if I only use it to watch their re-transmission of
over the air channels or (apparently) local public access channels.
Any advice on cord cutting or good HDTV antennas?
