    Old ui looked cleaner to me

    You were born in the wrong time. If only you had been born around in the 80s and you could of experienced the whole satellite thing when it was getting started you would of loved it. It used to be exciting to see all the channels they added and when we got our locals up on the satellite, we...

    I have finally cancelled Dish after 26 years!

    I wanted to try the new Next gen 4 tuner Tablo, since I had the old legacy 4 tuner Tablo and it is a very big improvement and the picture quality is much improved on the Next Gen. No compression like with the legacy Tablo. I got the next gen Tablo on my birthday last year from my wife. I...
