I don't watch that much TV anymore and I've been thinking about maybe just cancelling my cable.  I think they just made up my mind for me.  Have you guys seen this new "guide" shit?  WTF?  Seriously?  I can't see what's on other channels without pulling up damn near a full guide.  This shit is fucking retarded.  If I wanted DirectTV, I'd just call them.  Fuck you you fucking fucks.  Thanks for giving me the last push I needed to make the move to Netflix and Hulu.

Yup.  I don't watch much TV anyway.  I guess the only thing I won't be able to watch anymore is Monday Night Football.  Everything else replays on Hulu the next day.

To be honest, not really.  DirectTV/Dish suck worse than Cox (in my opinion and yes, I have had all 3).  So my only choice is over the air.

It will.  They're rolling it out in waves.  It's stupid.  Let's say I'm watching Fox News.  I want to see what else is on.  Rather than just browsing up and down, I have to hit the info button twice, then I can browse up and down.  However, I can't keep watching Fox News while I do it.  The whole screen fills up with the guide deal and shows whatever channel I have my PIP set to.

I just had someone from Cox call me about the complaint I made on a customer service survey.  According to the Cox Tech that I talked to they have been getting a lot of poor feed back on their new update.  If you have not called and complain please do so.  Maybe we can get them to change some features back.
