When I switched, it was because all the channels were digital with DirecTV. Comcast's first 70-80 channels were analog, which doesn't look as good on an HDTV and is variable on picture quality. I tried Comcast's original HD converter box that had an HDMI output, and it constantly had to be restarted. Also, Comcast was nice enough to boost my cable internet to $50/mo as a reward for dropping the TV service. I really don't like that company and think they try to gouge consumers as much as they can.
