:/ Hmm I don't really know the difference of TVs..
Like which one's a plasma? Is it the flat ones? :/ I think we have a plasma in the family room. It's hooked up to our Wii :/ We don't have a PS3.
We have digital cable downstairs and regular cable upstairs ._.

And infraction sounds like a medical term.
 
I have satellite, an HD receiver in the basement and two regular receivers for the other two floors. :D Surfing through the channels was hard at first because of all the channels I had, but now, it's sad, 'cause I've memorized half of them.

EDIT// My satellite runs kinda slow... like, there's a one second delay when you press a button on the two regular recievers. The HD one's awesome, though. They're all by the same company, but the regular ones... are kinda lame. :/

You're kidding right? O_o
Because around here cable = crap, where satellite = good.
Satellite is fast loading, has a guide (sort of like TV Guide... but better), has clearer picture, and so on and so on.

Meh :/ That's weird.. because Satellite here is like.. glitchy and get pixellated sometimes and it gets all laggy.. and digital cable is the one with the good guide and the clearer pictures :/

An infraction is a violation of a rule or regulation.

Infarction is the medical term you're looking for; it describes tissue death due to inadequate blood supply. Myocardial infarction is the default cause of death for people whose names get written in Death Notes unless the users specify otherwise.

As for the subject of satellite vs. cable, I essentially concur with Andrew. In the United States, satellite is usually the better choice.

I know what infraction means, thank you. And yes, that's why I said that the word sounded like a medical term.
Regardless, thank you for that little discovery-channel moment. I enjoyed it <3

:/ Meh, I still prefer my digital cable box <3

That's sad (as in... sad) because with my satellite you can set up a list of channels you want. I also have like... 500 or 1000 channels (I forgot how many) but I only watch a few, so I have my own list of channels I watch.

Sounds like Cable here... that's strange up there it's backwards from what we have here. XD

Maybe some of us get satellite from american companies and the distance is what makes things all glitchy and slow :/
But my nonna gets some Italian channels that actually air in Italy through our digital cable box and they all run perfectly fine .___.;;
And yeah, you can set a list of channels here, too. We just have the basic one though. We can also get like "On Demand" where you can like.. pause, and rewind TV. It's pretty cool, actually. And you can also say what program you want to watch and they can put it on for you on the Demand channel ._. *Shrugs*

Oh, I have that, too, but... I just never use it, for some reason. :/ I don't know the exact number of channels I have, but I only watch a handful, so it's not a problem for me to have a list. I'm not a big TV-watcher anyway.

I only watch like 10 channels 0.o
My grandma gets tons of channels, though I was scared of some of the things I found in there o.0
 
How long was the title like that? o.o

I hardly watch TV anymore, but I have over 1000 channels so I really don't see the use for me having TV.
