    Is there any TV tuner cards out there that will let me get digitial cable?

    I am a current HBO and Showtime subscriber. I would like the capability to watch these channels from my office PC. I do not want to rent another cable box from Comcast. Is there anything on the market to accomplish this?

    You have to have a cable box to watch digital cable on a tv tuner card. I have used 2 different TV cards. Since tv tuner cards only go up to a certain channel number and usually digital chanels are in the upper hundreds. Plus the cable box has to decode the digital signal.

    If they exist, they're not for sale legally in the US.
