I understand the technology of SDV, at least as explained by Wikipedia. What I do not understand is the manner in which the technology is being implemented by the cable provider. Why not switch to the Power On Channel for instance ?
People are different and should be able to use the services they pay for according to their individual tastes or needs. For instance, assume that I am to some degree physically challenged. I may not be able to react quickly enough to a message on my screen. There should be a way to accommodate the SDV technology and the wishes of the subscriber no matter the length of their attention span.
