    -VOOM signs HD Boxing Deal with Don King Productions-

    ADVERTS 1
    Ok I just caught a glimpse of a commercial on RAVE HD...

    Don King was sitting in a chair and he was doing some sort of advertisement for a VOOM HD PPV fight which we can get for $1 as subscribers....

    Anyone have any information on this... oh wait... I found this...

    I hope they get these compression issues straightened out before any boxing is showed. Can you imagine all the pixelation, and artifacting that would go on during an event like that? *shudder*

    Maybe that is why it is priced so cheaply in the first place.

    yea I hope so too... Im noticing it more and more every day...

    But if they can somehow get this worked out... this could be one helluva leap forward for VOOM. This is one of the many types of programming the people want...

    I hope they will take the opportunity and sieze the moment because with every passing day there seems to be more and more VOOM horror stories... and now it seems to have reached a hilt because many of the charter members are pissed now...

    VOOM GET YA SH*T together!!!

    Do you ever have anything positive to say? The fight will look fine and the sky is not falling. If it pixelates go pay 40 bucks for it on directv or E*.

    all in all i do think they are "working on these things" it may take awhile but i think back to when STARZ first came on..this is not as bad as those few days.if it's not fixed by next week you will have something to complain about ,now that everyone has seen it

    That's absurd, I've said many great things about VOOM. Besides this is a forum in which we should be able to report the problems we see. Am I the only one who sees it? NO! Do you think VOOM would ever fix any of these problems if we all chose to go your route, and not dare say anything negatoive about VOOM? NO! Now I don't want to get into a debate here about whether or not VOOM has problems, but seriously...if you are all happy in VOOM-land, and you see no problems then so be it, I actually envy you. But for those of us who actually want a decent service, that we are paying for by the way, we will continue to voice our opinions. If you don't like it sir, then why don't you go join another forum, where the sky is always blue, and the grass always green.
