Time Warner Adding More HD Channels
San Antonio viewers will get more Starz in high-def.
By Swanni

Washington, D.C. (October 1, 2007) -- Time Warner Cable is adding four more high-def channels in the San Antonio area, according to the San Antonio Express-News.

On October 15, Time Warner will add The History Channel HD in San Antonio, and on October 20, it will add Starz Comedy HD, Starz Kids & Family HD and Starz Edge HD.

There's no word when -- or if -- Time Warner will add the high-def channels in other markets.

The cable operator negotiates the national rights to carry channels and then allows local systems to decide if and when to carry them.

Time Warner, and other major cable operators, are enhancing their high-def lineups now, apparently in response to DIRECTV's plan to offer 70 HD channels by the end of October and 100 HD channels by year's end.

DIRECTV added The History Channel HD and the three Starz HD channels last week as part of its initial rollout of new high-def networks.

I wish Bright House in Michigan would add more HD channels. I can't even watch the baseball playoffs in HD.

TW had better step up quick and add a bunch of HD channels, because I am seriously looking at Direct.

Yeah, I ain't real jazzed at them wasting bandwidth on those 10 or so HD PPV channels.

For some strange reason there was a TBS HD channel last night on my Time Warner box......I saw no mention of the release.

Exactly..

And I was wondering why the Padres/Rockies game was on TBS instead of Fox or ESPN.

Time Warner blows. Direct came out with TONS of new HD channels.

I've got TW b/c of internet and digital phone but damn I would get DirectTV.

This is my first baseball post-season with HD and I looove it. My friend who has had it awhile swears that basketball is the best to watch in HD, so I can't wait for the season to start.

Awesome! I am looking forward to it! I have been watching Sunday Night Football in HD and those are badass as well. I do have to say though -- some things are better off w/o HD -- like John Madden. I mean, I knew they prolly had to cake the makeup on but I didn't realize just how much or how bad of a job they do of it till I started watching in HD. :dizzy

I bought a new house in February and got DirecTV solely because I knew I'd be buying my new home theater in April.... the past two weeks Direct turned on TONS of new HD channels and made everything all worth it... I love it
