FWIW FoodTV - the Food Channel is HD on Dish Network (and I imagine on DirectTV as well).

It looks good most of the time, though older shows are displayed in a ‘panorama’ format where the center is actual size and the sides are stretched to fit your screen.

I’m with Comcast. Satellite isn’t an option with reception issues for me. And Verizon doesn’t come here.

There’s some talk about our local power company (yes, we have one...) possibly getting into the cable business. They already provide high-speed wireless Internet, have for years. But that talk remains just that.

They say they have a cable provider up in Wisconsin willing to link into the fiber network we’re tied into, we’d have to handle the routing this side of the State line. But last I heard, that’s just, well, talk...
