That's the whole point. Presently Comcast has a lot of customers with
analog
TVs and no cable box. They can sign up for either something like 30, or
alternatively for about 65 channels. You need a cable box for each TV. At
one time I had 4 analog TVs hooked up and no cable boxes. Also, people
with
QAM and NTSC tuners could get the local stations digitally/HD and a lot of
other stations analog without a cable box.
