More for HD Disks?

I have the 4 disks for $14.99 plan, I have had this plan since April 2000. I have been VERY happy with Netflix for 8 years. (oh I remember when they used to have "Adult" content)

However I find it strange that they want to raise the rates for HD Disks. However maybe by the time the format war is completely over HD disks will be as cheap as DVDs.

Yea it was to good to be true, you have to "upgrade" to Mediacom's $50 a month package to get their "free" HD channels. So it does save $15 or so per month, but I don't want the other crap SD channels they include.

Oh well, I might just wait for the new Hauppauge component to USB device and get Dish's cheap HD package..

Holy Freaking Crap!

I keep reading about the large towns getting FIOS and such...but finally IL (outside of Chicago) gets some HD Love!

The only bad thing about MediaCom's current HD Offerings is the requirement that you have a certain level of programming to be able to get their HD offerings.

So for $20 per month I pay for the most basic level of cable which includes the HD feeds from the big networks (I do that so I can get another HD Source into MythTv). But if I want to get their HD Package (with about 7 channels) I have to jump to their $50 per month package and THEN pay $10 per month for their HD Package to get those 7 channels. No Thanks.

But now things might change! Oh happy day!

I love the smell of gadgets in the morning.
