Mr. Phillip Swann did an informal comparison of HDTV support on both Comcast and DIRECTV in the Washington area. I counted 18 bullet points of things he found on Comcast. And I saw 9 bullet points of DIRECTV HDTV programming. Mr. Swann then says:

You notice a trend here? It’s no surprise that DIRECTV’s high-def owners are getting frustrated. There are some good channels in the lineup, but it’s simply not enough. We need more choices, more channels.

Ain’t that the truth! And it’s even more frustrating when there are shows in HD that you can’t get because your local cable or satellite provider doesn’t offer it. Which is the case with me right now. My favourite show is available in HD - just no to me! And I’m the most important person when it comes to things about me.

I want my HD!
I want my HD!
I want my HD!

Please?
