No, he doesn't understand how a service can offer near-HD resolution 
over the Internet.  Despite the fact that tv providers have had no 
problem doing 60 channels of the same thing over the same wires for the 
last 30 years (10 years in the case of HD).

He also complains of not knowing what "cable tv" is, despite the fact 
that he admitted his parents used to have it.

You, know, regular Andy stuff.
