Fantastic FiOS
The shortest FiOS TV review is “GET IT IF YOU CAN!” The only weakness is the free video on demand selection. Here’s a bit of FiOS TV SD (Standard Definition) video from last night’s Red Sox game (reduced to 400×300, of course, with lossy compression). They lost to the Padres 6-1. Last time I made some screen caps and the Sox lost then, too. Most of my friends are Sox fans, and they’re a superstitious lot, so I promise to stop watching the games and jinxing them.
For myself, not having XM or Sirius, Music Choice adds significantly to the value of FiOS TV. The selection is great (although a Folk station would be welcome) and the Dolby Digital sound quality is faultless. I’ve just hooked up my CCrane FM transmitter, so the audio from FiOS TV is being broadcast throughout the house, and the Music Choice channel of the moment is anywhere I want, including the bedroom clock radio.
