I hate it that they advertise this way and get away with it. You can't measure the number of on demand TV shows against the 24 hour HD channels available on Fios. Let's say all of those on demand shows are 2 hour movies. That's only 500 hours of programming. Take that 500 hours and divide that by 24 hours in a day that an HD channel has and you have 20 channels worth of HD programming. Fios in my area currently offers 100 HD channels. That means they provide twice as much HD as Comcast is boasting about.
