Those channels should be the replacement Voom channels. | Out of your list, I would only want A&E.
They can't please everyone so they choose to please their premium customers!
I'm pleased.

It's just that Dish, like many companies, is anti-consumer. They try to convince the consumers what they want rather than listening to what the consumers want.

Do you think they will eventually position all the hd movie channels together? HBO,Starz/Encore, Cinemax and Showtime are currently not lined up in order? You have to skip about 20 channels from HBO HD etc. to get to the new HBO HD channels? Same with the other HD movie channels.

That sucks. Has this been confirmed Remy or is it what others think? Since these channels will be sdv what about the tuning adaptor?
