Competition is good. Cable service is much better than it was before DirecTv and Dish showed up. I would think Cable will have to at least try and match DirecTV and Dish's HD offerings. Customers who have HDTV programming usually have HBO and such and that is where they make the most money. If the Cable systems lag far behind they risk losing premium customers.
