I have been complaining to them and the FCC for years now..It all falls 
on deaf ears.. I told them I only want what I pay for nothing more..They 
want the rent for the STB's... I told the FCC what's the point of 
requiring TV manufacturers to supply digital tuners if the cable 
companies won't allow you to use them.. They did ask for my phone number 
and called me, and took my statement,but I never did hear back from them..
  The big problem is most people could care less,and there isn't enough 
home brew guys like us to hurt their bottom line...
