    So does BB@Home still deserve its own sub-forum?

    Isn't it sort of like giving Multi-Sport its own forum? What is the point anymore? The most revolutionary part of BB@H is gone. The crickets are going to only get louder here.

    PAC12 HD - thank you DISH

    It would be nice if that were true. Right now, there are 3 games going on over the Pac-12 Networks, and DISH is only showing 2 of them, channels 413 and 5454. Their guide shows the games shouldn't overlap, but of course they do, and when they do there is no way to watch the game that is starting...

    Is the point of 3D to make the viewing experience more real? Because if it is, I think it fails. I don't hate 3D, but to me it detracts from reality rather than enhances it. I can enjoy a short 3D film as a cool gimmick (like at a museum), but it makes a movie less real to me, for some reason...

    PAC12 Network online activation now working for DISH subs

    It's a much better picture online than we get from Dish-SD :) Since Dish turns on the HD channel for all Pac-12 live sports, including soccer, water polo, volleyball, & etc. throughout the day, I don't understand why they don't just have the HD channel active all the time? Sometimes they have...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    He wasn't talking about AMC. He was talking about the channels they are forced to carry in a bundle with AMC: IFC, Sundance, and WE-TV. Charlie said he would like to carry AMC if he could get it without being required to carry the other three. Read the source article.
