Too much copy and paste going on there.
This is why it's better to stick to basic cable and just get a bluray player or console, where you only pay for exactly what you want.

Main problem is the cable companies have to compress the HD channels because they don't have enough bandwidth. Bluray players use full on HD so a Bluray picture will always be better than what's coming over the cable or at least until they figure out the bandwidth problem. The cable companies are plugging their line up with on demand movies to make more money, plain and simple.
No simple answer to your question. I would not pay for a HD teir and buy a Bluray player.

I find HDTV a waste. Storage capacities also have to catch up as well as bandwidth for digital distribution to take off. It'll be interesting to see what the next consoles use.
Hansel, I realize we don't know each other.
