Trust me, we've been on hold with Comcast for about a year trying to make a deal happen. More coming later on this.

I'm not suprised, Comcast is such garbage. Their internet is slow too.

I have Verizon Fios and a 1080i plasma set and HDnet is by far the best looking channel I get. Man, I can't wait to watch the Fedor-Timmay fight on it. War Cuban.

Curious to know if you will be carrying HDNet anytime soon?


analyst Steven has entered room

Hello Brandon_, Thank you for contacting Comcast Live Chat Support. My name is Steven. Please give me one moment to review your information.


Steven(Wed Apr 23 2008 19:31:47 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time))>

I can assist you with your HD channel questions.


Brandon_(Wed Apr 23 2008 16:32:31 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time))>

Ok, I just want to know if Comcast is going to start carrying the HDNet Channel


Steven(Wed Apr 23 2008 19:32:42 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time))>

i am looking into that for you.


Steven(Wed Apr 23 2008 19:35:12 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time))>

Brandon, I dont have a time frame for when HDNet will be added to the lineup. We are working to provide as many high definition channel broadcasters as possible. Here are some of the factors involved with expanding our high definition lineup:

-the negotiation and contract process required to obtain the rights to carry a specific high definition broadcast, such as TNT-HD and HD-Net.

-the increased bandwidth resources which are required

-the relatively low number of subscribers (currently only a small minority of customers have high definition compatible television sets)

We will continue to explore additional HD programming opportunities as more content providers make plans to offer their programming in HD format.


Brandon_(Wed Apr 23 2008 16:36:14 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time))>

So negotiation with HDNet is in the works though?


Steven(Wed Apr 23 2008 19:36:51 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time))>

Sure, we want to provide as many HD channels as possible to our customers.

SAme irritating BS I got with my cable subscriber. Demand -- give me a break - I would love to know the demand they got for some of the channels they carry right now.

The fact that comcast didn't have hdnet was one of the reasons I went with directtv. That and directv has more hd channels than anyone else for less money.

dish network has a better box, but more channels for less money is always a winner.
