Richard's post:
4. I also object to paying an additional, mandated cost for a Cable Card
feature in an HDTV that I won't use because an external HD-DVR is a much
better device.  It should be OPTIONAL.

The Cable Card feature was not instituted by FCC mandate. As I recall, this
was a CEA initiative, and they lobbied aggressively for FCC approval. The
quid pro quo for approval was that it also include an ATSC receiver.
