Please log in for more thread options Is there any sense that this requirement will ease in the future? I'm pretty
frustrated with this issue. I have two perfectly good media centers at home.
I will not shell out a few thousand bucks to replace them just because I
can't get tuners with cable cards. I guess if there's no other choice I'll
end up with HD/Tivo boxes from the local cable or satellite company.
This seems to be locking out those of us who have been using media center
all this time.
