Is there anyway we could modify the article to include a note that because it's digitally compressed artifacts are present due to the [poor] encoding?I'm pretty sure anyone with digital cable has seen them on some channels and some time,if not everyday.
Shouldn't there be a note that the FCC transition to digital over-the-air broadcasts doesn't affect cable subscribers since cable subscribers will still receive an analog signal over cable? The presence of that section in this article is misleading in implying that transition affects cable subscribers that don't subscribe to digital cable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.62.102.43 ( talk) 04:00, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

All the cable boxes in a certain zone hook up to one big satellite, so really, it isn't true cable, unless it was hooked up directly to the broadcasting station and the shows were sent through the wiring to the cable box. Just though this should be pointed out on the main page. Flynn58 ( talk) 18:16, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
I was unable to find answer anywhere: Is digital cable broadcasting all channels at once, or is the set-top box actually sending requests to cable operator whenever subscriber changes a channel?
If latter is the case, then cable provider knows what each subscriber watches at any particular moment - which is enabling surveillance and profiling similar to tracking on the Web and social networks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.148.209.217 ( talk) 18:23, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
Confusing name - article seems to refer to a TV distribution technology rather than a type of electrical cable - Could we rename/redirect to digital cable television ? ie move this content to digital cable television and make this page into a disambiguation page - Rod57 ( talk) 08:53, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
