RCN Corporation To Roll Out All-Digital Cable in NYC

RCN Corporation has announced that it will begin switching its New York network to all digital Cable TV programming, starting October. This will allow RCN to improve the picture quality, make the network easier to maintain, and dramatically increase the number of standard and High Definition channels it can offer to subscribers. RCN is also planning to increase its Video ON DEMAND (VOD) content, including hundreds of hours for free, as well as more subscription and pay Video ON DEMAND programming to provide customers with even more choices available at the touch of a remote.

“By going all-digital, we can provide the consumers of the great Empire City a superior alternative to the incumbent cable and phone products. We believe we are at the top of the class in going all digital,” added RCN CEO and President Peter Aquino. “At launch, we are able to increase our HD channels to more than 75 channels and are positioned to make good on the promise of offering approximately 100 HD channels or more in the future.”
