I'm fairly addicted to the New Wave and Brazilian stations on Comcast's
digital cable in Boston, and I can always find *something* to listen to,
even if for only a couple songs at a time. Better still, digital cable
will bring you the joys of VH1 Classic (the best television channel EVER!),
MTV2 and probably MTV Hits (their equivalent of a Top 40 station and one I
watch quite a bit -- by the way, Outkast's new video for "Roses" is
frickin' hilarious), BET Jazz (which has a nightly show filmed at the
Knitting Factory) and several other similar stations.
Add in BBC America (the second-best television channel EVER!), whatever the
NYC equivalent is of our regional sports channel (I'm pretty that I could
watch just about every Red Sox game this season, if I were that much of a
masochist), Fox Sports (which shows UK football matches courtesy of Sky
Sports), the Style network (I know, but I'm addicted to The Brini Maxwell
Show -- imagine Martha Stewart Living as hosted by a man in drag) and the
Biography Channel (NewsRadio re-runs!!!) and digital cable is TOTALLY worth
the damn near $80 a month it costs.
