Fright Night was in my BB queue for a long time, not that I cared about the wait, but when it finally arrived it was a 3D Blu-Ray disc and it wouldn't play in my older 2D Blu-Ray player because it wasn't 3D capable. I can't find a 2D version of this movie in the BB inventory, search result...

My first disc shipped 10/3 and said it would arrive 10/5. It arrived today right on time.

I was wrong about this and the online support person was not correct either. It turns out I actually am in the Platinum promotion and didn't even know it. I had the Platinum pack over a year ago and called to ask about ways to reduce my bill. The CSR said they could reduce it by $10 since I'm...

Exact same thing happened to me. I think they sent me my #5 or #6 in my queue even though my top titles said available NOW. I increased my willing to wait time to 2 days, but I'm not happy about it. My only consolation is that I don't consume movies as fast as I used to. Pretty lame though...

Yep, if you like the Netflix streaming you should definitely keep it, the Blockbuster/Platinum stuff does not replace it content wise. I realized I wasn't using Netflix streaming and since the price jumped I dropped it too. The so called Blockbuster streaming on Dish is a name change only and...

I auto-payed Netflix the October money at the end of September and the Netflix rep on the phone on Saturday was fine with giving me a refund. I think my billing date was Sept 27 or 28. So what I meant was, just because it is October now, you can still cancel and get the October money back as...

On Friday I was paying Netflix $16 for 2 discs out at a time with Blu-Ray access. Today I'm paying Netflix zero because I cancelled on Saturday and that was SWEET. For those of you that want to cancel your Netflix sub but think you have already paid for October, they told me you have a week...

Yes, they should probably rethink the steps necessary to stream a movie. I also think simply providing a better looking interface would do wonders to enhance the user experience even if it didn't change the steps necessary to stream a movie. On my 722 it just looks so old and nasty, and yet I...

I agree completely. I was impressed by the integration of the pause, play, forward, back controls that I'm used to with my 722 DVR, and the picture quality and sound was excellent while watching a few of the new release HD selections. Much better than the controls I had with Netflix streaming...

I have the Platinum pack as well and upgraded to 2 discs at a time on Saturday and also see the wrong amount on my Dish summary. Mine says $15 but I think it should be $5 for the extra disc. I chatted with Dish online yesterday and was told the summary would be corrected by today but I still...

Great answers, thanks. But I would say my question about the Brick and Mortar stores is relevant since I'll be returning discs there under the new service as a Platinum sub. I'm opted in and getting at least one disc anyway, if I choose it, right? So I need to return it somewhere if I want the...

I’ve read all of the posts in this thread up to now and my assumption is that Platinum package subscribers pay no extra charges for a new 1 physical DVD out at a time service, and we get a streaming service with BB branding. Let me know if I’m wrong. Here are my questions: Will the new BB...

Thanks guys. I'm keeping my VIP722, I've never been unhappy with it and I really don't need the additional OTA tuner. I appreciate the effort from Dish though. The Dish offer included some free PPV certificates and free Starz for a few months. I called them about it and they bumped Starz...

My VIP722 has been rock solid for many years but I received a free upgrade offer that expires on 1/31. My 722 has always worked great but lately I have noticed intermittent blocky pixelation when starting recorded programs or fast forwarding to a new portion of a show, and the time it takes to...

It really is time for more HD. I quit my b*tching after the last rollout but it has been quite awhile.

I need MLB. I'm sick of ESPN. Too biased, too lame. Time for something else.

That's the one I'm looking for. All I can say is it's hard for me to be too mad because this is just so hilariously consistent.

You know it's a bad one when M Sparks throws in the towel and admits surprise. I'm with ya, buddy. No way this just happened. We need a face-palm emoticon.

I'm a Yankees fan, my forum name says it all and I already don't get YES, so I just hope Charlie will set aside his bitterness with Major League Baseball and give us this one channel in the same way he finally relented and gave us the NFL channel. We deserve this. This is so important to so...

There are a few concert shows coming up. Are you sure those won't be Jazz?

I'm right there with you on this. I thought I was getting a free HD movie channel today until I got home from work. Now BETJ is the only new one and I haven't even had a chance to watch it yet. I'll bet it's great, here I go! *Edit: And I'm back. They are showing a car customization show...

This is just so disappointing. I was okay with the loss of Extra Innings because even though I bought it every year I realized I didn't watch it that much. But to not offer the stand alone MLB channel is a killer because ESPN is just not enough baseball news for me, I don't care for their...

I also have an anyone know when post ... Anyone know when the Des Moines, IA HD Locals on 129 are going to be switched on, if ever? These aren't new adds, they're already available on 61.5 in DM. Digiblur told me they are uplinked on 129 but not available (thanks Digiblur, didn't want to...

You might get used to it and no longer see the difference or your TV could also be aging over time and that affects PQ. Depends on the length of time. Rear projection TV's bulbs age, LCD's age, Plasmas age. My girlfriends all start out great and the longer I know them the less attractive they...

I wouldn't want to use either one. Couldn't I just copy and paste either one at that point? Devils advocate. :D
