1. Comcast claims they have 3 times the Hd content of direct tv on their commercial .. someone needs to file a lawsuit for false advertising.

2. A Comcast rep. told me on the phone that most of direct Tv's 100 hd channels are shopping channels, LMFAO. Boy, did i go off on her, since we have only 18, and 4 of those are pay movie channels

Brian Roberts, do you even believe your own BS ? How do you show your face before your peers. Look at what Cox communications is doing.
