HD is only in letterbox/widescreen, so if its not in letterbox then the show is not in HD

& cable HD is not that great…OTA or dish/direct is better.  
& Dish Network bought out voom so it has the biggest HD channel selection…about 23 total i think.  
where cable & direct only have like 10-12 or so.

check [titantv.com](http://titantv.com)  
its a online tv guide that tells you whats in highdef & you can pick what your provider is: cable, Dish, Direct
