It's called the 'Digital Squeeze' and all the cable companies are going that route. Comcast has already done it in a lot of networks. They're all taking advantage of the broadcast digital switchover to do their own switching at the same time. The hope is that in the process people will think the government is making them do it. Of course, it's just adding to the confusion and the bad feelings all around.
