    Just to let everyone know. I just got off the phone with voom (not a bad hold time btw less than a minute) I told them that I needed to cancel my installation because my wife was unaware that they didnt have the Food Network, HGTV, USA, G4TechTV, etc. The Sales guy on the phone quickly tried to give me a $40 credit to my account and explained that they were in contract negotiations with those companies. When I still said no he then asked to put me on hold and got his supervisor. The Supervisor came on the phone and then offered me $70 credit and explained that I could keep my existing satellite provider with Voom and compare the two. It sounded like a good deal to me so I took the bait. I also asked about the DVR he said that it isnt confirmed but they are expecting a launch date of mid-summer(end of July beginning of August) Coinsidently their promo ends 7/31/04. The Supervisior said that they would likely offer a rental or purchase option. Hope this helps anyone at least looking for a discount.

    Well I think what Voom's trying to tell you freaky, is that like in October we should see more SD channels, which is what that article said. Hopefully more HD channels too.

    Honestly, I bet you anything they have deals in place with lots of these SD channels already. VOOM has just sacraficed a few of them in the short term until they get the WM9/MPEG4 compression up and running. If they can add those SD channels, and get the regional sports networks up, all they'd have to focus on after that is adding every new HD channel as it hits the market.

    Not providing the locals is the best decision they ever made. It will allow them so much freedom to provide tons and tons of HD content.
