    Are CBS, NBC, and ABC in decline?

    I believe it , a lot of network shows i liked ended, shows like superstore, and cbs moved two shows i like to streaming only. I’m watching more PBS than i used to so it’s not all bad.

    Public Interest Channels

    I noticed on a vehicle that included 3 years of xm traffic that it also got a handful of audio channels like NPR and Doctor radio. I was wondering if these were available because of the public interest channel requirements of the sirrius xm merger. I observed that once the traffic subscription...

    Poor mobile experience

    The mobile experience is terrible on this site. The changing ads cause the page to resize moving text while reading. The worst thing though is some ad is able to hijack my browser and redirect to some gift card prize scam. The icing on the cake is this site is deleted from the history so you...

    Large number of Blu-ray failures?

    The older the disc is the less likely it will play error free. TV show blurays are the least likely to play without hiccups.

    What is the better choice for streaming: Netflix or Amazon?

    I disliked having amazon show me episodes for sale when I run a search on the PS3. On the xbox it only shows the content included in the prime membership. If you purchase frequently from Amazon prime is a pretty good deal, they have several warehouses in my town and I frequently get my two day...

    Crummy Amazon rental experience

    I took the free trial of amazon prime and for my it almost never streams in HD. The xbox has a cell phone signal style indicator for streaming quality and it usually is one or two bars out of 4. I'm using Cox with 25Mb service on a DOCSIS3, I have no problems streaming netflix super HD so I...

    Welcome Pack

    I had just HBO and Showtime so it was $6 No package + $6 DVR + $24 for HBO+SHO. I'm thinking I'll wait until the OTA networks go into summer reruns. Thanks again

    Welcome Pack

    Thanks for the info guys. Looks like its about $9 more a month than I used to pay. The package is of no value to me without HD. Is there any chance there is an international package for less than $15? I thought you used to be able to add premiums to those. Thanks again for the info.

    Welcome Pack

    Is it possible to get the welcome pack without locals and save $5? I closed my dishnetwork account about 18 months ago. I have an owned 622 and used to subscribe to HBO and Showtime only. I was considering reactivating and am curious as to the cheapest route to HBO. The welcome pack isn't...

    Another rant- I hate Blackberry!

    If you don't want to give control over your blackberry to the IT department don't connect it to their BES (blackberry enterprise server). Being connected to a BES also allows them to read any text messaging and read phone logs. If you were getting the corporate email via IMAP they would not be...

    The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien

    CW was beaten by ION recently and ION has fewer affiliates

    The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien

    That is what NBC says but Leno was getting beat by repeats. NBC said that wouldn't happen and Leno's ratings would average out over the year when the other networks ran repeats.

    The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien

    I didn't like Conan after he moved, he seemed to be trying to be like Leno was. This past week was the Conan I remember from Late Night. Leno also failed, his new show was supposed to be different than the Tonight show but it was pretty much the same. I hope Conan does go to Fox, then Leno...

    Stargate Universe

    I didn't even think of rings but you are right! :) I was watching an Atlantis rerun the other day and it reminded me how much is missing from this show.

    Question on Dish tuner and PSIP

    The problem is its not the same station to the receiver, however dish does their channel mapping they would need to map 45.3 to the listings for WRGB. The WRGB text you are seeing in the guide is taken from the channel name in PSIP.

    Stargate Universe

    This show isn't stargate, its an inferior,cheaper knock off using the stargate brand name. They basically use the gate the same way star trek uses the transporter. There is little else connecting the show to its predecessors other than simply having a gate on the set.

    Question on Dish tuner and PSIP

    Thats not a PSIP problem , you would need to contact dish and ask them to add listings for 45.3. They are not typically responsive for OTA EPG issues unfortunately.

    What Killed UPN and The WB TV Networks?

    MNTV has given up and the only thing getting me to the CW is legacy Supernatural. I read somewhere that Reba was the CW's highest rated show when they canceled it, it didn't fit into the new niche. I don't get why news corp doesn't program MNTV with new content considering their resources...

    Is Guide Plus+ still available?

    Guide+ went digital but I've read its possible for the station to convert it to the old analog format for cable. The DTVPal can also do the conversion but it works with antenna only. You could try contacting the station that carries the TVGOS data and see if they are or will support analog...
