Comcast adds a bunch of HD nets in Boston, Massachusetts
Check it, Beantown. Comcast has just upped the HD ante in your city, delivering a badly needed new helping of high-def stations to its lineup. Starting now, users in the Boston region can find a bunch of new HD premium movie channels along with HDNet, Travel Channel HD and CBS College Sports Network HD. For the full rundown of newcomers, give the read link some love (or just a look).[Thanks, cypherstream]

I live in Quincy which is adjacent to Boston. Quincy's Comcast service currently offers 43 HD channels. My friend lives in Boston (Dorchester) less than 1 mile from my home. Last week I was amazed to find out that he had a significant more (15) HD options than I. Today I discover that his Comcast service now offers more than twice the amount of HD channels than mine yet we pay the same amount to Comcast. I haven't seen a new HD addition to the lineup in at least 6 months. Why is there such a vast difference in the HD selection?

They must be doing this all over. I'm in the SF Bay area, and we received something like 10+ new HD channels from Comcast about two days ago... Bravo, E!, Travel, Toon, Hallmark, Speed, FX, MTV (although it's called something else), and a couple of other channels I don't recall-- I think one is news though. A week prior they also gave us Vs. in HD, which has something to do with sports, hunting and/or golf.

Comcast blessed us Vermonters today with 17 new HD channels including MGM HD, IFC HD, Cartoon Network HD, Toon Disney HD, Travel Channel HD, ESPN News HD. Way to go Comcast!

I wish they would push these out to the suburbs of Boston. We still haven't got all the ones they gave to Boston in the last batch (like Bravo HD).
