History Channel: Why so much woo-woo bullsh*t?

I’d like to see that happen, but I think all we’re going to get is a new digital tier of the classic cable networks, paying extra for the “nichier” channels that are now only available on digital cable. In the end, it’ll be much like today, only analog set owners will need a box, and those with digital televisions might be ale to get rid of theirs if unencrypted QAM channels are actually used.

On my Kansas City cable channel Everest/Surewest I have a pretty good selection of unencrypted QAM channels and no box.
