HD Channel List: Dish Network vs DirectTV

[TNGTony]

To make a list like the one in my first post, use a word processor and "tabs" between columns. Post the document by adding the tag [ c o d e ] (no spaces) and end the documents with [ / c o d e] (again, no spaces)

Add or take away tabs as needed to keep columns straight.

I would do it, but I have to go to work now... If it's not up tonight (Easly Sat morning -- I won't be home til 1am or so..), I will make a side-by-side using the original lists on this thread.

See ya

Yep, I know. It's hard for me to remember that MHD stands for the MTV HD channel so I wrote it this way.

I don't get DirecTV so I'm sure I am missing channels. Anybody see stuff missing? They added a few more RSN's this week. What were they?

MHD isn't really MTV HD, its a combo of channels. MTVHD will be a separate channel in the future.

While MTV-HD may certainly be a channel for the future, all of the channels in that "combo" are owned by MTV Networks, which in turn is owned by Viacom I believe, so they are all under the same umbrella....

MTV, MTV2, MTV-Tres, MTV-Jams, VH-1, CMT ...ect. Hell I even think Nikelodeon, Comedy Central, Spike TV, and TV LAnd all fall under that same umbrella but I could be wrong.

The name for the channel though is MHD.

A side by side listing with the HD channels that both Dish and Directv have at the top and then the ones that are only on one provider below would be very helpful.

I put this quick worksheet together. I'm sure a quick modify would be able to list them like that:

IMHO these charts speak for themselves on the HD "war"

Hmmm...D* is starting to look real good. More of the HD programming that my family watches than on Dish.

Dish better wake up and add more HD movie, news and national programming or I may have to switch.
