| | I thought you could pay for it and download it. It could sit on your hard drive for a year if needs be. However, once you started watching it ... even a few seconds, then the timer kicked in and you only had 24 hours to watch it.

TV folks and broadcasters are CHEAP. The movie studios have much more compelling content with incredible special effects that make much more economic sense considering that the public values the movie watching experience more than TV shows and the studios are already transferring their library to Blu-ray for 1080p. It's not about the technology, my friend. It is about the economics.

I apparently got the update last night on my 622. I turned TV on and the picture was horrible. The convergence was way out of wack. Never had this problem before, so I am wondering if the output has changed in some shape or form... Very bizarre...

"3D"?

I've only seen L610 going to the 722 receivers.

I have 622dvr.
I cannot see the channel 501 PPV., but I do see some new HD channels.
I still have L512.
The Dish website says "all existing subs" have been turbocharged.
Is anyone else in the same boat?
