Tired of a crappy picture, I went, pissed off, converters in hand, 
to quit the local cable company, intending to get a dish instead.  
A really patient cable company lady soothed my ruffled feathers 
and talked me into digital, which was hooked up within 72 hours.

I couldn't be happier unless they let me have it free.  It is 
indeed like night and day compared to what we had before.  I guess 
it depends on the company.  We had AT&T Broadband, but I think 
we've just been sold to Comcast.  Whatever.  It works.  I've 
recorded stuff on SVHS that is almost -- not quite, but almost --
as good on replay as DVD.
