Cox Communications has added five HD channels and one Music Choice channel to its lineup in the Hampton Roads area. Also included in the additions are two On Demand channels including the Filipino Channel and Shalom TV. Cox says it now offers 72 HD channels in total to its customers. 
Parts of Connecticut are now getting MSNBC and MSNBC HD through AT&T’s U-verse service. The standard-definition version can be found on channel 215 (as part of the U100 package), and the high-definition version on channel 1215.
Verizon says they will launch MSNBC throughout the New York metropolitan area on Feb. 2, however, they will not be providing the HD simulcast which is available in 1080i. Well, the 480i feed is at least a start. Previously Verizon, along with AT&T, was in a carriage dispute with area cable provider Cablevision, preventing them from broadcasting the channel.
