How did I know this was going to be the result? Go Microsoft! Nothing but the best from those awesome hard-working folk! Within the next five to ten years, no one is going to subscribe to the ridiculously expensive TV packages from the tel co and cable co anymore anyway. Services like Netflix and Apple TV are the future, especially when I hear about Shaw doing things like disabling fast forwarding on VOD during commercials. The future is here and Canada's big cable/tel cos will continue to be stuck in the past. If you look at the HD channel availability from all of Canada's big 3 TV providers compared to the HD channels that exist, it's abysmal! Almost every SD channel is available in HD now in the US, but they won't fork over the $$ here! Maybe if we're lucky Telus will continue adding an average of 0.5 HD channels per month.
