Comcast Wins a BUNGL For HD Compression
The Associated Press is now reporting on the additional compression that cable companies are imposing on High Definition channels, that I reported on earlier this month. The 3:1 compression creates a visibly inferior experience. As one user put it:
"I couldn't really tell if what I was seeing was really better than what I saw on regular television"
The point here is that users are being ripped off, paying for high definition channels that they aren't really receiving, and for that achievement, I'm awarding a BUNGL to Comcast.
This makes two BUNGLs for the cable industry, giving them sole position of first place!
Ike ..you know where they are going. Mobile only. That is now 14% of all households.
Its Fixed mobile substitution.
