About Half of HDTV Owners Get True HD

[Gregg Lengling]

Survey Indicates Access to Best Signals Growing
More HDTV owners than ever are watching bona fide high-definition programming. About 52 percent of Americans who own HDTV sets also subscribe to an HD cable or satellite service, according to a recently released study by the Cable & Telecommunications Association for Marketing. Though media reports expressed surprise at the results, the figure is actually higher than some previous studies of HD service market penetration.

True, even my sister - who replaced her 20" colour TV with a Panasonic 42" plasma has the HD box from TWC...now, if only her roommate could learn to go to channel 512 vs. 12 for "Ugly Betty".:rofl:

As far as my brother goes, he was "told" he had to upgrade his old D* box to the H20 & their HD package if he was going to get help with setting up his 48" HDTV set from me (he is cheap).
