I'm working to create a listing of every single channel (all music, international, HD, SD, everything) offered by both providers for comparison sake. I need to know EXACTLY what will be gained and or lost by switching between any package from either provider. Anyway, I feel like I'm re-inventing the wheel. Surely, someone must have done this before. Does anyone know where I can find such a list?

The Echostar Knowledge Base (http://www.dishuser.org/) This is nice ,But a lttle confusing for most. Too much Info is not always good.:D Plus it doesn't show anything about D* knowledge base.:)

Here is a good one that list every channel and every carrier. It does not break it down into package options though.
