Now that you have HD, how much SD do you watch?

[Tom Bombadil]

For those who sub to HD, be it E* or D* or cable, what percentage of your viewing is still of SD programming?

 

[BFG]

2-0%

 

[dfergie]

6-20% (Replay downrezzed HD and FTA /C-Band SD and local news)

 

[Julien]

0%, I have never tuned to a SD station.

 

[TalonDancer]

We still watch "a lot" of SD because Dish does NOT provide HD Locals for Austin (and Local s OTA is NOT an option due to distance and terrain)

I watch USA SD for Monk, Psych, Dead Zone, and 4400.

Right now a lot. If the History Channel, History International, USA, Si-Fi, Biography and the Science Channel were in HD..... it would be very little. I see that AT&t U-Verse has A&E in HD. That would be nice also.

Little...less than 20% - would watch no SD if I could.

I see that AT&t U-Verse has A&E in HD. That would be nice also.

A&E currently shows very little HD.

 

[Mr.Pinkeye]

I probably watch about 50% HD, and 80% of that is OTA. Once our local news finally goes HD it'll probably bump my number up to 60-65% HD.

 

[PowerMax]

Most of my viewing is OTA and even the local news is in HD so I watch very little SD now, the 6-20% is what I am forced to watch by the NHL.

 

[MikeD-C05]

I mostly watch the networks in HD since I "moved" to Houston to get them last year. I don't watch HD just to see HD, I watch for content . The networks have the most content in HD out there. The rest of the national hd channels have reruns of movies I have already seen back in the 80s and 90s.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

So early returns have it that about 60% of HD subscribers watch HD 80% or more of the time.

After that the rest are pretty evenly distributed across the 20-40%, 40-60%, and 60-80% regions, with a couple of people who watch mostly SD despite having HD.

betcha those are the ones with HD boxes, but SD TVs

 

[Ricknau]

If the History Channel, History International, USA, Si-Fi, Biography and the Science Channel were in HD..... it would be very little.

What he said. But I always check the HD channels first.
