subject: How To Get Free Hd And Take Advantage Of Satellite Special Offers [print this page] Let's face itLet's face it. High definition TV is in. There's no if's, ands or buts, HD technology is here to stay. Like color in the 1960's to stereo audio in the 1980's, high def may have started off as a fad, but that fad has now become the industry standard. Everyone is switching over to HD from the top end movie channels all the way down to the local stations in every Podunk town in America. And if you don't have it, you're hopelessly behind.
With most satellite TV packages, HD usually comes for free! All you have to have is a TV that's capable of displaying the 16:9 HD video and you're good to go. It doesn't matter if you've got the top end 62 inch LCD 3-D capable TV's with built in Surround sound in 1080p or an old style 19" tube type that came out when HD was in its infancy, you can watch hundreds of shows and events in HD's blazing glory without having to pay an extra dime for it.
How, you may ask, can something that has taken 2 decades to build up and billions of dollars and a mandate from the Federal Government to force everyone to switch from analog TV to digital HD be free? Simple. Satellite providers want you to switch from cable or even from rabbit ears over to their services. HD is a popular trend right now with no sign of slowing down. They will make special offers to entice consumers to switch. All you have to do is look around. You won't have to look very hard at all.
Direct mail advertising comes to your house about once a week. These packets will offer all kinds of discounts from fast food coupons to discounts on life insurance. And, more often than not, offers for satellite TV service. If you peruse those ads, you'll find packages that begin as low as $30 per month, with all kinds of perks like free HBO and Cinemax for 3 months. You can even find offers for free HD channels. Not just the demo channels like you'd expect but the mainstream channels.
All your locals are usually free now. Since the Federal government mandated the switch to digital, almost every local station across America has switched to HD as well. When you subscribe to the sports channel packages like ESPN, not only do you get all your favorite channels for football and baseball included, but all the ESPN and other sports HD channels as well. Baseball games are great on regular TV, but being able to count the blades of grass in the outfield is pretty spectacular.
And when you subscribe to the movie channels, all the accompanying HD channels come along. You can now experience movie theater quality without paying $7 for a bucket of popcorn. And you've not paid any extra!
HD is here to stay, and the satellite companies want you to have it. Be sure to check out all offers, mail and online, to find the one that best suits you. Then sit back and start enjoying high definition on your TV!
