They have been touting "more streams" for a long time (as long as you don't cross them...) They started with 1, went to 2 pretty quick and have been teasing 3 or 4 streams for a year or more...
They are at a bandwidth limitation though. The number of streams you get is determined by how fast your local loop is. If you get more than 30 megabit, you get 2 streams, if you get over 60 megabit (I think) you get 3. You would have to be right on top of the DSLAM to get 4 streams. I have about 2000 feet of local loop and get about 38 megs, so my copper isn't too good.
They mix the internet service in with that available amount too so it just takes that right out of the total. If you sign up for super ma

This is U-verse. You know.. fiber to the last mile, DSL to the home? There is no cable or satellite involved, here.
Wow, finally, a DVR worse than the Scientific Atlanta Explorer 8300HD.
