The perhaps-surprising result is that OTA HD channels are probably higher bandwidth than most channels you'll receive on cable.

- jpdoctor 15y ago> are probably higher bandwidth It's hard to compare. Yes they are higher bandwidth (15.6 Mbps or so OTA) but they are mpeg2-encoded. Many of the stat-mux cable boxes are mpg4 at a lower rate. So which is better? Depends entirely on what is being broadcast (and where in the stat-mux channels you're looking.)
