Sorry to be off topic again but I wanted to reply to Doug. As far as ditching cable or satellite all together. I can get 32 subchannels with a good over air antenna. In addition, with a Roku (some TVs and DVD players will work too), I can watch Amazon on Demand, Netflix, Hulu Plus, etc. Amazon on Demand is paid per movie or show. (They also have a prime option.) Netflix is like $8 per month. Hulu Plus is like $8 per month. With this who needs cable or satellite? That is my two cents.
