Comcast scrambles more channels

I'm a Comcast customer and I've been paying too much for cable for almost 10 years.

A few months ago they removed the ability to receive channels on an analog TV without their DTA.

That didn't affect me too much since I use Windows Media Center and have 4 QAM tuners. I did lose a bunch of channels, but at least I still had some good channels over Clear QAM.

Well today they went and scrambled the following QAM channels:

TBS Superstaion 82.39
Bravo 84.22
ESPN 85.103
TNT 85.105
ESPN2 85.108
Cartoon Network 91.102
Disney Channel 91.105
Sci-Fi 91.107
USA Network 91.112
CNN 92.207

Cable had 2 big advantage over Dish and DirectTV

• No equipment needed at each TV
• Not having to deal with a dish and the weather issues

Comcast is working very hard to nullify the first advantage.

I would like to see Comcast get some real competition. We can choose from different gas providers, why can't we choose from other cable providers?

Shouldn't we get what we pay for?
