    If you don't have Voom Get it now!

    ADVERTS 1
    For those of you Dish subscribers who don't think voom is "worth" the upgrade, or D* subs who don't think its worth the switch, rest assured...your wrong. I just upgraded to Dish from D* and I couldn't be happier, I am honestly addicted to these channels! I was sceptical at first but now I have no regrets. I cant stop watching GamePlay HD and when I do its to watch either Monsters, Rave or Animania. All of the Voom channels have surprisingly good HD programing you really, really get what you pay for...and best of all, no commercials.

    I just got it and the one channel I love to watch is the world sport or in other words spanish soccer. Also the game HD channel is good and I also like the snow sports that are always on!

    The only stations I don't ever watch are the art ones because those are just borning... I think Voom put them on there just becasue they are in HD. Well just because it's in HD does not mean anyone is going to wath it...

    Ultra HD can be ok as they sometimes show swimsuit models, my friends and I tried watching Gallery HD and nearly fell asleep, we tuned in just as they were analyzing a painting...just weird.

    Everyone feels this way during the first couple weeks, but then they realize there's nothing left to be viewed any more.

    I used to love watching the 12 minute HDNews casts, but now 12 minutes seems to long for me to sit through

    It is all a matter of taste. Since January they have been adding more new programming than INHD1 and INHD2 combined. It is all a matter of preference. I love to watch the Gallery HD and Ultra HD. I watch Rave only a few concerts since I do not like popular music as much. Filmfest and Monsters are at the top of my list. Kung Fu hd is very good for all the Samurai Japanese flicks which are very different and good filmmaking if you are tired of the Hollywood film. So for everyone there is different stuff to watch. WorldCinema is a must have for me since I love foreign film so much. I do not have WorldCinema yet but I will soon.

    I've been watching the Bruce Lee flicks on the kung-fu channel. Very cool. Besides those, you're right, the kung-fu channel is pretty useless. Now if they start playing some of the old school kung fu flicks they used to play on Saturdays that would be sweet.

    I thought, I would never watch the KungFu channel, but now it is a channel I always check to visually see whats on. If its over the past 4 or 5 years from China, its great. Plots, photography, story line, everything. I watched one, all subtitled, the other night, can't think of the name---it B---------------, all I can think of is Battafuko and I no that's wrong, it was super. I haven't even started watching Equater or Rush and I know that they should be 2 of my favorite channels. Voom is well worth the money.

    I like this original poster's enthusiasm. But until I see the "old guys" from the VOOM DBS threads jumping up and down about how great VOOM is again, I am not buying. The last I heard there are still too many repeats, and the rez ain't what it used to was.

    I will wait until VOOM is as good or better than the old VOOM DBS.

    1080iBeVuMin.. NOT !
