I was bummed when this was added. I think it was a very short-sighted decision.

I do not think so. D* has 5 channel per tps and the bitrates looks like 7-8mbps. The resolution is yet to be determined.

I don't understand this logic. HD channels aren't "short-sighted" channels. TBS HD may have very little HD content at the moment, but it will only increase over time. Personally I'd rather have it than not have it.

I totally agree, very glad to see this channel in the list and looking forward to more HD on it.

I agree. It's presence is not the reason we're not getting more HD now.
