Yeah, it'll be more of the same (500 channels and nothing to watch), only it will be a clearer picture. Give people 20-30 high-quality HD channels, and they will be thrilled. Quantity not quality is hardly a good thing. Not to knock Directv (I'm a sub), but does anyone really care about that many HD channels if they are gonna be carrying the same old dull programming (nature shows, weather, crappy films)? Doubtful. And if they don't get their HD DVR working right very soon (on firmware download #14 I type, in just 4 months), what will it matter? More HD channels to record means even more frustration for subs.
