Re: QAM channels on RCN

That's good to know. I couldn't find such information when I was trying 
to compare digital offerings from RCN, Verizon, and Comcast a few months 
back. 

Care to share the full lineup that is in the clear via QAM? 

Unfortunately, because a minority of the users rely on such reception, 
there is little guarantee that they'll continue to provide those 
channels unencrypted in the future. It'll never happen, but ideally I'd 
like to see a provider put it in writing that they'll provide their 
lineup of non-premium channels in unencrypted format.
