Comcast Disables VCR Scheduling In New Guide
,----[ Quote ]
| "Comcast has quietly launched a new on-screen
| guide for its cable boxes. What they're not
| advertising is that they've removed the
| ability to schedule VCR-compatible channel
| flipping any time more than a few hours in
| advance for people who don't buy the
| $20/month DVR service. What this means is
| that VCR owners are now forced to pay for
| Comcast's $20/month DVR service or else start
| their recordings manually. For us techies
| there might be a way around this, but
| ordinary VCR enthusiasts and owners of other
| recorders are left in the dust. Anyone know a
| good antitrust lawyer?"

| It appears that Comcast has no idea how to
| handle someone with an IQ over 30. This
| individual just wants setup fancast to watch
| hbo programming on his computer. Clearly
| Comcastic doesnât know how to handle such a
| complicated question and the madness begins.
|
| The below is a cut and paste of the IM
| discussion with Comcast this individual has.
