Comcast's digital transition in Chicago rolls on, new HD channels launched

Shortly after Comcast made the bold move of yanking 38 analog channels from its expanded-basic analog tier, customer complaints unsurprisingly began to pour in. Thankfully, those chapped by the move have apparently learned to deal, as Comcast has witnessed a steep decrease in the amount of griping here in recent months. Better yet, the firm has decided to launch four new HD channels -- A&E HD, Food Network HD, HGTV HD, and National Geographic Channel HD -- in the Windy City with the bandwidth it freed up. Kudos Comcast, way to get your priorities in order.
