This has just started happening recently. Kind of driving me crazy. I'm not going to buy a new TV just to access On Demand shows that historically have been available in SD. Help?

Verizon announced they are getting rid of all SD vod content.
You can get a HD stb and play HD content on a SD TV.
The assumption is that is the first step towards getting rid of redundant SD channels to allow for more HD channels as some providers have done.

Thank you so much! I tried googling the question and also asking on verizon.com (before finding the forum) but couldn't get a good response. Cannot tell a lie, though, really tired of being forced to buy new equipment and/or service every five minutes just to maintain the basics. But thank you again. Appreciate it. š P.S. I don't LIKE the answer, ha! I was hoping all this HD stuff was a fluke. But kudos for letting me know.

If you have a current free box or grandfathered box, then you are looking at a price increase. Current plans make no distinction in prices for HD boxes.
