So there are the last 15 channels to drive this list to 100... I have a 211, not ethernet connected, so no channel 1 here (I don't remember if they are even capable of receiving VOD, not much interested in VOD right now)... So, I won't see the 100 HD channels.
I was hoping that maybe we had at least a chance of getting back some of those premiums we lost...
I understand carriers counting the VOD, even if not everyone can see them. I won't accept they counting ALT channels that are only "available" when nothing is on, and when there is a game they are always blacked out-"not available in your area", because in reality, they are never available. But in our case, it does not seem they are counting those.
So the list goes- 68 "regular" + 11 PPV + 1 NHL Center ICE (I don't know if this is available to us when they are really broadcasting) + 5710 (dummy Velocity channel, no guide) + 15 VOD (as per rajmarie) + Fox (when available) = 97. Plus we could easily receive and they could add (if they decide so, but I don't see any movement in that direction) CI, PIXL, UNIHD for a total of 100, in theory. In reality, right now we only have 96...

HDNMV is already available on channel 130.
Still...I am not happy to see Dish advertising 100 HD channels...when in reality...if you have everything pack (their highest) you get about 70HD only...the rest of he 30 are PPV or VOD.

I have to disagree about the PPV or VOD, I think it's fair to count those. Although you may not want to use them, could be good for someone else. No different than saying there are 60 HD channels in my package but I only watch 40 so there are only 40.
