You know... I have a sneaking suspicion that by the time that happens
I won't really be watching much recorded stuff anymore. With all of
the stuff that's readily available either for download or purchase
these days it's really easy to go for days without going into the
Recordings menu.

Does anyone keep track of how much actual HD content is on the HD
channels available these days. Last time I did a spot check, most
of what was on these HD channels was old SD content anyways.

That would be something for someone with entirely too much time
on their hands to keep track of... an HD/SD ratio.

Mebbe there's even a site with that sort of info already...
