    Changing your free HD offer

    When I signed up for DirecTV about a year ago, they had the Free HD promotion going on. The offer stays valid if I keep auto billpay, paperless billing, and keep a minimum programming package of Choice Xtra (English) or Mas Ultra (Spanish). However, now that DirecTV has introduced the...

    Question about VOD channels

    I just recently got DirecTV service installed in my home. I notice quite a few VOD channels are availble, including those that I don't get the regular channel for in my programming package. For example, I don't get DIY Network, yet I have access to their VOD channel. I currenly have a 3-month...

    Thinking about moving to DirecTV from Dish.... question about HD

    For each of DirecTV's programming packages, if you pay the $10/mo HD programming access fee, do you get all of the channels in HD that are in your package in SD that have an HD equivalent carried by DirecTV? Or does DirecTV pick and choose which channels you get in HD? The reason I ask is...

    NHL Center Ice vs. NBA League Pass on Dish

    I currently subscribe to NHL Center Ice, so I know how it works on Dish. For example, feeds from both teams (home & away team) are available, if Dish carries the RSN, aside from the Canadian teams. As I am thinking about signing up for NBA League Pass, I was looking over Dish's schedule for...

    I was wondering about this package... do you get only the HD channels available based on the Classic Bronze package? Or do you get the HD channels available based on both DishFamily and Classic Bronze packages (i.e., Bio HD, CBS College Sports HD, Science Channel HD, Fox News Channel HD)?

    Possible to get NBA TV in HD through Dish Latino?

    I am currently subscribed to the Dish Latino Max w/ HD Essential package. Is it possible to somehow get NBA TV HD? If I remember correctly, adding the Multi-Sports Package will only get me the channel in SD. Or is it different since I am a Dish Latino subscriber instead of a TurboHD/Classic...

    I don't understand Dish. I live in downtown Houston, but yet my RSN according to Dish is Fox Sports Southwest, which is home to the Mavericks and Spurs (NBA), Rangers (MLB), Stars (NHL), and FC Dallas (MLS). Fox Sports Houston (home of the Rockets, Astros, and Dynamo) already broke away into a...

    I am currently signed up for the TurboHD Silver + Platinum package. A few months back, while flipping through my channel lineup, I noticed that Fox Sports en Espanol on channel 855 was available to me. I just assumed that it was a free preview at that it would go away after a few weeks or a...
