Cox communications has recently announced the addition of seven new hd channels to their line-up in the Phoenix area. The company has also promised to provide even more hdtv channels to their subscribers by the end of the year. While that's all well and good one has to wonder why Cox isn't giving any specifics to their by "the end of the year" statement.
For instance when exactly will the number of hd channels increase. The statement by the end of the year is somewhat vague. It can mean anywhere from September to December and quite possibly January of the following year(2009).
Secondly whats the number of hd channels subscribers can expect to receive. Will it be 40, 50, 60 or perhaps 100 or more national hd channels. I don't recall seeing a total projected number.
The last question one has to ask is "What's it going to cost me"? You know that if Comcast keeps good on their promise to increase the number of hdtv channels in their line-up by years end that an increase in you cable tv rate is just over the horizon. The question is how much more will you have to pay.
