I heard that TiVo requires a monthly subscription to use. Not sure why this is, but if you have rogers service (digital I think) their STB comes with a PVR, or atleast they sell a PVR that does not require a monthly subscription fee.
Question around LCD TV's:
I am poised to enter into the market with a Sony 40" or 42 " V3000 (KDL40V3000) which is 1080p. Best Buy has them on for $1499, or G&G electronics for $1450 (for the 40").
Does anybody know if the basic cable feed will look like crap on this set, or will this set interpret the video feed as being SD, and set down the resolution displayed?
Or am I stuck in having to purchase digital & HD cable (which will set me back over $80/month, almost double my current cable costs).
I want to take advantage of free HD broadcasts & enjoy DVDs in HD. Not to mention re-arrange my living room to accommodate the TV set.
