HD On Demand with Basic Cable

Does anyone know whether or not it's possible to get an HD box in northeast wisconsin for TW Basic cable. I would like to get the on demand access. I would also like more HD channels and know the QAM gets the over the air channels but we get some extra channels (over and above the basic package) I know it's 7 bucks a month or so for box rental. Would it be possible to get the box with just a basic package?

I know how unnecessary it sounds but someone please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Check to see what the minimum digital cable package actually costs. In my case, "Basic Cable", in other words only analog, costs $58.

The Digital Cable package, which includes Basic Cable + 1 tier, costs $50.45 and comes with all the VoD stuff plus all the HD channels of channels you have in the Basic Cable package and the tier you chose. Then, you pay abouy $7 for the digital box equipment.

In essense Digital Cable actually costs you about the SAME as analog here, and you get all the HD goodness with it.
