    D!sh network.......

    I guess I shouldn't get optimistic about VOD or Comcast-leased DVRs appearing in my area soon after all, then. =/ Uh, what? What are you talking about?

    And the DTV price for everything is about the same. It's up to you, but I'd go DTV. The DTivo is great. When you buy a PPV, it asks you after you buy it if you want it recorded. This is how I've enjoyed the last three WrestleManias over and over until the DVD comes out and replaces it.

    The advantage I've seen to Comcast when it comes to the premiums is that the Encore group are part of a Plus package. At least, they are here. It's really hard to talk or grade Comcast as a group as the Comcast in Philly isn't the same Comcast in Seattle which isn't the same Comcast in San Fran Here's the pricing of the premium stations: 1st premium $12/mo. 2nd premium $11/mo. 3rd premium $10/mo. 4th premium $8/mo. 5th premium $7/mo. The packages are lined up like this: HBO Group (HBO/HBO2/HBO Family/etc) Starz/Encore group (Encore, Starz, Action, Romance, WAM, etc) Cinemax (Cinemax and MoreMax) Showtime group (Showtime, Showtime Too, Showtime Showcase, Showtime Extreme, Movie Channel, FLIX, Sundance) It used to be that Cinemax & HBO were a package together, but they've split up, which makes Cinemax a lot less of a good deal than it used to be. Those extra $-per-month charges are on top of your monthly package bill, and you can compare the packages and what channels they include all here The Premiere package includes all the movie stations as well as a bunch of sports shit you'll probably never watch, but costs an unholy $90 a month. Sweet jeebus. Here we just have Total Choice Plus with HBO on top of it (although it'll go as soon as the Sopranos season is over)

    Anyone know what the pizza sponsor was?

    Not according to their web sites, which list nothing of the sort. With my luck it's some silly NY-only pizza group anyway.

    Kane vs Undertaker

    My guess is either the match is thrown out with a dozen or so run-ins, or at the actual show Vince makes it "non-sanctioned" so Kane can win without it being a "real" match.

    Damnit, I meant to say "They forgot the intended pimpage." And I forgot a word.

    DirecTiVo boxes are (or at least were) going to be cheaper than the regular TiVo, since the reason those are so expensive is because of the encoding technology. DirecTiVo's don't need to encode, so they're cheaper by not including it. DTV is currently running a $99 "Like it or your money back" deal. http://www.directv.com/directvdvr/dvr_lp/index.htm The downside is all the legalese about subscribing for a year and whatnot. It's sweet, sweet sex though. If you find a better way to get it, do so. I think DTiVo is carried in electronics stores (I bought mine there), but I just haven't checked lately. I do think that you do pay an itty bitty extra fee to run the second tuner, but not total "second box" price

    DirecTV still loves you, guys. And you haven't lived until you have DirecTiVo. Two tuners so you can record something and watch something else, or watch two things at once by pausing one tuner and switching to the other. Did I mention that even the earliest model has 30 hours of Perfect Quality, since it saves the actual signal and doesn't have to compress it into MPEG?

    Rob Feinstein........

    Your arguement would allude that 1Bob would lie and make the situation rosier than it really is, but instead concludes on the opposite.

    Well, PS2 is the weakest of the consoles anyway. Even Sonic Heroes (which looks like a Dreamcast game with steroids) is gimped for PS2. Why not play for PC? The controls are pretty much made for it, the graphics are better (high res, full-screen anti aliasing), etc.

    It loads as fast as your hard drive and CPU can go, I presume.

    He sounded so drunk in that promo that he probably forgot what he's for and against. They should have done this segment earlier if they wanted it to suck less, I presume.
