I just switched from Comcast to DirecTV. Not so much that I was unhappy with Comcast (although their HD-DVR is far worse than the DirecTV one) but because they couldn't tell me any timeline for adding new HD. To me it's about content, not about the box. And the HD quality, despite my mis-givings about rumoured 'HD-lite', has been perfectly fine - just as good as Comcast. I guess it was worse back when the used MPEG-2?
