The $15.95 figure (plus $13 for basic) gets you a HD DVR, 16 SD channels and 5 local HD channels.

But to get all the HD channels including the 3 new ones, Insight requires you to upgrade to classic cable ($29 for 55 SD channels), the HD Pak ($7.95 for 5 national channels, and $12 digital pak (81 SD channels).

This racks up a total of $77.90. For a total of 8 National HDs, 5 Local HDs, and 152 SDs that I'll hardly ever watch.

Thats $51.90 over basic cable to get all of Insight's HD channels. Pretty riduculous.]]>Oct 28th 2006 12:49PM
