Sorry for Off Topic post but.. (archive)

Charter Cable in my area is now basically blackmailing everyone into getting digital cable and to be honest the costs seem to increase every few months. Im paying over 50 bucks for extended cable and a few premium channels.

I just checked out the Dish TV site and it seems like a very good deal. Does anyone use this? Is it true that you cant get local stations?

Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
