That is what I was reffering to before.. The cable companies using the
term "Digital Service" to sell high priced packages when in fact, most
of the "basic" cable channels are delivered to the TV in digital form
anyway...

hmmm. *Not to be argumentative, but no.
If the basic channels are "delivered" to an analog TV in digital format, you
couldn't watch it.
It has to be converted back to analog. *That can happen in the cable box (if
you are using one) or at the local cable company feed (if your analog TV is
connected to the wall cable). *The cable company gets all of *it's* *feed in
digital format (mostly via satellite) but sends it out to your house in
digital AND analog.

Again, if you have a non-digital TV and have it connected to cable *without*
a box and you can see a program ..... it's coming over the cable in analog.

Which brings us back to Doe.

OK, I think I get it now.. and you don't have to apologize or be
argumentative. I don't mind being wrong, especially when "right" gets
explained without insults

Well, since Eisboch didn't insult you, do you mind if I step in and
throw around a few? *- Hide quoted text -
