I have been comparing local OTA HD channels quality to UVerse channels. On 13-1 for the Hornets game right now the UVerse seems brighter but the quality MIGHT be lower. It also might be in my head. I know providers compress the signal to save money on certain channels but want to know what everyone actually sees on their own TV.
OTA is better i think. I am not sure by how much but I also noticed motion artifacts with U-Verse. Comcast wasn't too bad.
