Well, I don't HBO, Showtime, etc. So I get 41 then. Still, pretty damn good. ]]>Mar 1st 2008 12:34PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/
What I want to know though, is what cable/dvr system (if its not just a photoshop image) the picture here is from?! My Comcast station guide is puke-ish by comparison; this one looks clean, with some awesomeness thrown in.

Help me out!]]>Mar 1st 2008 12:45PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/
IMO, best guide UI for recording all types HD off of cable is probably still TiVo's. TiVos support cable card so can handle the encrypted streams.]]>Mar 1st 2008 1:21PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/

I guess what I'm saying is that DirecTV has some 60 commonly available channels marked "HD", but maybe 35-40 of them actually show hi def.]]>Mar 1st 2008 1:11PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/Mar 1st 2008 1:31PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/Mar 1st 2008 1:58PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/
Also I get a bunch of Voom channels on top of the regular dish network ones (treasure, rave, anima, hdnet news, monster, etc) but I don't know why, because I didn't ask for those... I'm not paying for it.

TONS of channels I don't need... like a grip of HD-NHL channels which usually have a static image saying "tune in when programming is available" or some such.]]>Mar 1st 2008 1:40PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/Mar 1st 2008 2:16PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/

I get a kick out of all the commercials that are in HD... i remember when i first saw a commercial in HD, i didn't want to skip it because it looked so good.

Of my non-HD believers at work (those who havent seen it yet and don't know what they're missing) I try to tell them that my commercials look way better than dvds, which always gets a puzzled look.]]>Mar 3rd 2008 7:42AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/Mar 1st 2008 5:17PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/
Once the DirecTV HDPC20 is out (hopefully before football season!), and maybe by then DirecTV will have created an HD-only service like DISH has, I hope to get two of those and have a bada$$ system.

Wow, I sound like Barack Obama with all that hope...]]>Mar 1st 2008 5:21PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/Mar 1st 2008 5:30PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/Mar 1st 2008 8:42PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/
To me, the big question is how many of these channels are worth watching? To be honest, I only have 2 shows I watch in HD and they are both on different networks.]]>Mar 1st 2008 6:22PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/03/01/poll-how-many-hd-channels-do-you-have/
I think we get around 11-20, maybe a few more. This isn't counting HBO's and such since I don't get them anymore..

However, there are about 5 or 6 that are worth watching. And fewer than that that offer only HD programming.
