Re: buying a budget hd receiver and need help :)

you can't get a high-def stb for that price yet buddy.they are still very new.heck that would be really be pushing it too even years down the road i wouldn't count on them being that low ever.
you can get a mpeg2 hd only stb.like what bev uses for now until they change over.but even still your looking at around $225-$250 or so for a captain 8000hd.

even basic lower end stbs go for slightly over a hundred bucks buddy.

complete setup mpeg4 capable pvr stbs go for around $550-600
