    Ahhh. Feels good to say I will be rid of TWC in less than a week.

    I am not the biggest TWC fan, but at least they appear to be putting forth an effort to make the HD customers happy. Seems like they roll out a few new HD channels every few months!

    They do seem to be adding a bunch of HD channels. I like it!

    Now if we can just get espn360, and the NFL network then I will be happy.

    They are adding HD because they have one of the worst HD offerings of any major market in the country. They really started adding new HD channels once AT&T U-Verse first started to become available. I left TWC last January or U-Verse (knowing it would be a rough first couple months as they worked out the kinks) and did so simply because TWC needs to know customers are not happy and will switch if they don’t keep up their game.

    Now if ANY of these providers could start offering remotely decent set-top boxes or opening up extenders like WMC-PCs and gaming consoles. THeir hardware and software is a good 5 years behind the curve. Hell, AT&T even disables a good chunk of functionality from the Microsoft MediaRoom framework they derive their OS.
