Alright, we have a 52" Panasonic HD tv.
We just ordered basic/standard cable. I'm surprised just how bad this looks on this tv.
Would HD cable make any difference for standard programming?
And then, to top if off, I've got two years left on my Tivo account. My understanding is that my Tivo account doesn't even do HD?
Any thoughts or suggestions on my best options for getting the best quality programming.
Will HD cable give me better quality on my regular programming ie: ABC and such?
Thanks! |

If your TV has an ATSC tuner, you can get networks for free with an antenna, if you are close enough to the transmitters. Go to antennaweb.org and see if there are HD channels in your area and what size antenna you need to receive them. |
