Smithsonian HD dropped and replaced with Crime & Investigation HD

[w5pny]

Equator had two months worth of programming before it began repeating. Smithsonian had two weeks worth of programming and then started showing reruns. At least C&I starts with reruns.

I actually enjoyed the repeats on those channels. Not necessarily so
on most other channels.

I'm another one. Charlie does it again. But then EquatorHD was my
favorite. Of what's left I liked Smithsonian best. Wish History International
were in HD.

Amen to that.

I was a Dish subscriber since 96 and now just recently moved to U-verse. This is exactly the reason why I left. With the price increases and the lack of HD commitment from Good Ol' Charlie I have had no reason to stay. So Long Charlie.

Oh, BTW, Expressvu has REMOVED the 2 VOOM channels they had.

What about Oasis HD?

And Rush for that matter

I had been trying to decide whether to keep Platinum or not. I do watch HDNet Movies, and some Universal. But dropping a real HD channel for semi-HD reruns of shows I didn't want to watch the first time around pushed it over the edge. Just canceled Platinum online. I can use the extra $10 to offset my Netflix sub.

Good advice re: the Netflix offset, especially if NBATV is gotten via the AEP.

What a shame....

I thought that those versions of Voom were owned by Hi Fedelity?

Oh welll....I guess nothing good lasts forever...sigh

Me too! I would say I watched it several times a week, they had great HD content and PQ was better than most!

All,
Then nobody has the real reason why Smithsonian was taken off Dish Network?
No, I don't know either. It was one of my favorite channels though. I liked Equator also but didn't
see it very long.

Is this confirmed? Rush, Equator, Treasure (and even Oasis) are still showing on Bell's website.
