What information can you give me regarding the tv setup cable companies are offering?
My dad says that a special box added to cable tv is all that is needed if the person has cable. Is this true? Please give me the FULL story. Serious only please. Thanks!

What are you talking about?
Some people use cable TV straight to the TV, others use an external box which gives more channels, features like program guides, PVR and High Def.
Some HDTV’s have a feature called “Cable Card” which takes the place of a cable box.
If you want extra channels and features then yes you need a digital box, if you just want regular TV then you can have just the coax wire from the wall to your TV.
The box will get you HBO, Showtime, Starz, etc….but it will also give you a better picture in most cases. With the box you can also enjoy on demand movies and free previews.
