Gee I guess they should change it to "up to" 390 if thats the logic?

My guess is that they prefer to say something like "up to 39" rather than saying "exactly 37" (or whatever the actual # is) because they are still adding new channels.

I dont think 390 is within the bandwidth limitations... Originally Posted by vurbano

I would interpret "up to" as meaning that 39 HD channels are available as of 6/1/04, and that you can get "up to" that many if you want to pay for them (with the basic Voom package, obviously, you get quite a few less). Originally Posted by vader It says "up to"...
So Voom is late in getting some HD channels up and running. I would like to see them, but I'm not going to cancel over this.

yeah, I was kinda hoping for INHD 1 and 2. I'm surprised Wealth didn't show up today - maybe it didn't meet its goal to start broadcasting today. I have my doubts about wealth as a channel but those members who seem to be the most in the know acted like they were expecting wealth. I guess I'd be happy with nothing today if it turns out we get something great (and I guess for me great would be INHD 1 and 2. or HDNet which I know is a long, long shot; or maybe AMC HD (if that rumor is true) in the relatively near future. In my mind, I'd rather go without anything (especially wealth) for the next month if it meant I got AMC HD sometime in the next 60 to 90 days.
