Not that so much - the length of time it takes to install all the equipment and ensure all the myriad types of STB work properly with the new software is the main kicker, although the latter at least only has to be done once. You do need good quality cable though, so there's a fair bit of effort in that direction, too before you can launch. Add in the fact that we still have three billing systems and you're not talking easy.

Odd to be able to talk about it now - hope it works!
