I got a digital STB last year or so, way better picture but I still need to angle my rabits ears in different directions for different channels. :( That’s totally cool..

And of course they spread the good ones across the different packages so you have to buy the upper one just so you have the 5-10 channels you really want. Someday maybe they'll have ala carte but then of course it will probably only save me $5/month because they'll charge a premium for it. sigh.

Now that you have a DVR, the way you watch TV will change forever! (I love mine!). 6 channels doesn't seem like many, until you realize that the more you have, the more crap there is that you won't watch. Congrats on the new equipment.
