Rogers Cable last week began the roll-out of its Quickstart menu to Digital Cable customers in Ontario.
The new menu, which Digital Home first told our readers about in November, is now spooling to select Rogers digital cables north and east of Toronto.
Provided the company does not encounter any implementation issues, customers in Toronto should see the new menuing system in coming weeks.
Early feedback from Digital Home readers using the Quickstart menu has been extremely negative. Readers complain that the new menu is more style than substance. Subscribers tell Digital Home, they would preferred that rather than adding a pretty new (see screenshots below) digital cable menu, Rogers should have invested in redesigning and improving its tired 2004 era Interactive program guide (IPG) with its 4:3 aspect ratio.
While a few readers have offered faint praise by saying the Quickstart menu was "not a bad start" and "I kind of like the feature", the following is a sample of feedback Digital Home has received from our readers:
The following screenshots show the new Quickstart IPG.
