Well, a few points from me.

- I have Bell; primarily for NHL-CI. But I have considered switching to Star Choice partly for the simsub issues that Oilkiller pointed out. To me Star Choice is the Mac to the PC, or the Beta to the VHS. In so many ways the one is better than the other, but the other one remains more popular than the other.

- I have to wonder if Canada will really go for OTA HD like in the States. With how spread out we are, and for the percentage of us that already have cable or satellite, I wonder if the costs from the broadcasters is something they'd want to cover; given the choice.
