Comcast Pulls Different Technologies Together

By Dawn Amerson

Over the past decade or so, entertainment technology and the Internet have both grown by leaps and bounds. Because of that, there are more channels on TV than ever before and more interesting sites on the World Wide Web than ever before. In order to take full advantage of these developments, you need the absolute best access to the Internet possible, and the best television service provider you can possibly find. Fortunately you can find both in the form of Comcast. That's because Comcast can provide you with hundreds of channels of digital cable TV along with high quality broadband Internet access, both at an affordable price.

Comcast has taken advantage of all of the latest technology to deliver the best cable TV service possible right to your home. This technology includes digital TV, HDTV, ON DEMAND, digital video recording, and interactive features that help you take control of how you watch TV. Digital TV is the TV format that provides the best picture quality possible. HDTV is the next generation of TV with a high resolution, wide screen format that mimics what you'd find on the screen of a movie theater. ON DEMAND is Comcast's proprietary version of pay per view that allows you to start recently produced movies whenever you want, pause them, and replay scenes that your want to watch over again. The interactive features provided by Comcast include an on screen program guide that will let you determine what to watch without having to spend a half an hour channel surfing just to see what's on. It's a huge advantage when you have hundreds of channels to choose from as is the case with the larger programming packages. All subscriptions also come with interactive Parental Controls that let parents make the rules for what kids can and can't watch.

Comcast's broadband Internet service makes it possible to enjoy all of the best entertainment, information, and communication that the World Wide Web provides. You'll be able to watch all of the best amateur videos on sites like YouTube, watch the latest news clips from outlets like CNN, stream audio from all of your favorite Internet radio stations, and download digital audio files including your favorite new songs and podcasts. It will also be easy to take advantage of the software updates that will keep your computer problem free, and participate in some of the best online games.

Comcast also makes it easy to get set up with broadband Internet by providing a cable modem and a wireless router. The wireless router will allow every wireless device in your home to access the Internet through the cable modem. That means that all of your laptop computers, desktop computers, and other devices like smart phones will be able to take advantage of the Internet in your home without actually plugging into anything!

Another feature offered by Comcast- one that people don't normally associate with digital cable TV or the Internet- is phone service. While it may seem convenient to bundle phone service in with broadband Internet and digital cable TV, the convenience of phone service with Comcast goes way beyond that. That's because, this phone service offers an incredible combination of free domestic long distance calls (including calls to Canada) and including all of the most commonly used bonus features that other companies charge extra for, all in one low monthly bill!

Recent advances in technology have the promise of changing your life for the better, and no one does as good of a job as Comcast when it comes to bringing all of those advances together!
