COX - Cable TV — 

COX lies all of the time about its free High Defintion programming in their commericals.   The COX programming does not cost anythng extra directl;y but in order to access the High Defintion channels such as movies and music you need to pay for a monthly fee on each box for all channels over 101 channels.  If you do not have a box, which you have to rent via them, you can not get any of HD programming so it is not "free" no matter how many times it states it.  Rather than charging for HD programming COX is charging an access fee PER TV.

The only equalizer is that other service mediums other than COX lie has much as COX does about its advantages.

Agree completely. Without hi-def, you can forgo the completely useless digital tier, unless you are really dying to have the Hallmark Channel, and Lifetime 3. Plug directly in to your tv, and your bill is around $40 a month. To get hi-def, you fist have to get 3 more useless tiers, pay for boxes you otherwise wouldn't need, and pay around $100 a month. Even going from an SD box to an HD box costs you $6 more per month per box!! WHERE DO YOU GET BALLS SO BIG YOU CAN CALL THAT FREE????!!!!
