I've been exploring my new 6208 (rented) over the past day or so and by far the coolest thing is TMN's VOD option that comes as part of the TMN package. Seems like a very good $16.99 per month esp. since I get TMN HD as well. My son was watching a kid's movie this aft (Veggie Tales) on TMN VOD and had to break for dinner. I just paused it and we watched the rest after dinner before heading up for his bath.

I would also add that although this was just basic digital reception, you would have been hard-pressed to get a nicer image with HD (it is animated). This package from Cogeco is highly recommended.
