I watched some stuff on ScienceHD last night. I don't *THINK* it was stretch-o-vision.
It looked great on my 42" Aquos.

I think you can go to 200 plan get some as well. But this is something everyone will half to do with any TV provider not just Dish. So there is no reason to complain about this if you want HD you half to pay for it.

That's old info probably missed that page update on the website. The HD to package translations changed back in spring.

How is it old information? It lists the new channels just added and they aren't asterisked. It says they should be available with any dish package.
On with a rep now and even she says the page is misleading.
As for getting what you pay for, I have COMCAST as well. I get every HD channel they offer sans the pay movie channels. They do not make you buy more packages to get their HD. They offer MTV for a year now, NGC is on there, you can have their basic digital cable package and get every HD channel they offer.
