For the same price!! So if I watch an HD program in living room, other TVs are not on HD. But the worse part was when tonight I was going to record one show and watch another at 8. I could not watch the 2nd program in HD since I was recording in HD!! Back to Comcast I go....why have HD TVs if you cannot use them!! So be sure to ask how many HD lines you will be able to get before falling for all this hype.
Got all 4 tvs on HD with Direct TV and a little cheaper than Centurylink. We might could have "worked it out" with Centurylink if they had only shown up and helped us with it. I could have easily managed 2 HD lines if that had been the only problem but it was one different thing after another and we could not get service!
