digital cable vs. satellite standard definition


Haven't been keeping up lately, what is the resolution/quality on these two, real obvious difference?
Cable HD vs. satellite HD, do they both get full resolution or is cable somewhat degraded? thanks for any input.

If you are watching tv via a dvr, with a cable company dvr, they compress the signal more as the disc fills up, so video quality goes down. with a directv/TIVO box there is only one quality (best).
cable is a bit better, I used to be a firm Satelite guy, but "on demand" thru cable is really a great feature, siganl loss with Satelite is a real pain.....cool thing with cable is if it does go out I just watch concerts and movies from the DVR.
Is there much differnece between digital cable resolution and regular satellite resolution?
