Don’t Downgrade Public Channels by Scott Hanley Hartford Courant (CT) 04/07/08 3 comments ] I applaud The Courant’s decision to encourage the General Assembly to protect the Connecticut Television Network from substandard delivery on AT&T’s U-verse video system editorial, April 4, "Don't Downgrade CT-N"].

The good news first: The software is simple to get started with (critical for a backup app) and the paid plans all provide unlimited storage for your documents, photos, music, and video files (also critical -- who wants to count bits when signing up for data insurance?). The system checks for new files by de
