However, it doesn't matter because I won't buy a Blu-ray dive any time soon because HD's still too expensive for me to seriously consider. I'm holding out for digital downloads.

I’m holding out for digital downloads.

After I finish with whatever movies I haven't watched, I know this much: My next DVD player won't be tied to any console. Ugh.

jgordner,

I don’t use my media center for DVR stuff (I have had one for a while now) because up until very recently, media center couldn’t record HD via cable card. Now it can, but the solutions that are available are far too pricy to compete with a $5/month buggy comcast DVR or a Tivo.

I've been using it for a few months, and it works quite well -- especially considering there's no subscription fee. I've also seen software around that lets you set recordings and watch stuff through the media center over the internet. Haven't tried it yet, but it sounds pretty cool.

Continuing to pay them $100/month hardly seems a punishment. OK…why wouldn’t you ditch comcast for DirectTV or Dish on top of this? Continuing to pay them $100/month hardly seems a punishment.
