  • I got digital TV :)

    It was a combo package really. Broadband, Digital TV and IP-telephony. Buy three, pay for two. So now I have like a 100 channels, which is nice since I only pay for 15... But most of them are crap anyway, mostly arabic and eastern european channels. I saw some hilarious commercials on some turkish channel, must be even funnier after a few beers

    It seems like I don´t ever have to leave my apartment now. I can let the world come to me

    It can't be that good if you're posting about it here rather than sat watching it.

            duke, I´m trying not to wear it out It´s Firefly in an hour and Deadwood and Denis Leary on stage later. I just spent 2 hours flicking through the channels and watched snippets of History Channel, Discovery, The Heroes of Telemark, Snooker WC and Scrubs. Needed a break.

                what is digital tv (yes I know from the name). But is it related to hi definition tv? It's only recently I've heard about it. And the goverment wants everyone to have one by the end of 2006 I believe, which isn't going to happen.

                    It took you an hour to write the same thing as Diss???
                    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                      What station is Firefly on?

                      We got digital too, and we just got a DVR also. I've been watching all the Good Eats and Adult Swim I can . . . in the datime!!! No more staying up late!

                        Digital TV can be either standard definition or high definition. Standard definition digital TV is little better than your normal cable, except that they can put more channels on digital TV. The cable companies try to hype digital TV, but it's no big improvement.

                        Sweden only has standard definition TV. The US, Japan, Canada, South Korea and Australia are the only countries with substantial programming in high definition right now. Most cable TV and satellite TV companies in the US offer at least a dozen high definition channels.

                        It's only recently I've heard about it. And the goverment wants everyone to have one by the end of 2006 I believe, which isn't going to happen.

                        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                          I think I understand what Digital TV is. Yeah, well, I've got it for quite some time now, too.

                            HDTV is wayyyyyy too expensive for the masses right now.
