Stick with your crappy cable tv It's your loss.
My WOW service looks identical to my two neighbors sat service, one has Dish the other DirecTV. And yes, sat can be more expensive than cable. For me with 5 tv, one being HD it will cost me total between the sat service and the non-tv rate increase for WOW over $30 more a month, for the same services.

Digital cable isn't even all digital. Only some of the channels are digital. With satellite every channel is digital. There is no comparrison with the picture quality. If you think it's just as clear you need glasses.

Even though we are off topic. I know exactly what I see, and have perfect eyes. You have no idea what you are even talking about. Almost every signal feed that is sent to WOW, Comcast or any sat provider is still ANALOG. The sat companies just digitally compress them, which in turn lowers the quality of the station. A good analog feed will ALWAYS be better than a digitally compressed picture(this does not include HDTV feeds).

Of course a clean, uncompressed signal is going to be better than a compressed digital one. But when the analog signal is sent to your house over the cable, it loses quality. From your posts on this topic, it sounds like you've just got the worlds most perfect cable plant, because I can tell you that I've never seen a perfectly clean analog cable signal. You come to my house and put DirecTV side by side with cable (WOW or Comcast), and DirecTV easily wins.

I have seen the sat companies and I am not impressed with their PQ. They do not look any better than WOW's signal, they are better than Comcast's signal. I am not going to continue with this subject, we are beating a dead horse. You and a few other here like sat, that fine for you, cable is cheaper by a long shot for me and looks fine I am sticking with it. We are now way too far off topic.

I know a lot more then you think imrf and cables picture quality and prices suck. I'm done with you on this subject. Enjoy your cable tv. You must like that tv show about the 70's cuz your still living it.

Finally. You pay for what you want, and I will pay for what I want.
