    New Channels and Olympics on VOOM?

    I'm pretty sure that only the people who live in the markets of these channels will get them. On Directv you have to pay an extra premium to receive the out of market channels, and still all professional sports are blacked out unless you subscribe to the appropriate professional sports package...

    What's so good about InHD & HDNet?

    There are, but they aren't on Voom for the most part except ESPN. ESPN shows some of everything, and have been increasing as they've come along. INHD shows 3 baseball games a week and quite a few NBA games in conjunction with NBA-TV. HDNET shows 2-3 NHL games a week. And there are many RSN's...

    [VOOM] RSN's

    FSN Chicago will become almost useless, if it even continues to exist, come October. The Cubs, White Sox, Bulls and Blackhawks are all moving to the new Comcast Sportsnet that they will part own with Comcast. This new channel will be the one they want to carry. C

    CHICAGO METRO AREA VOOM

    It was blacked out on ESPN because it was shown locally on Fox Sports Chicago. Blackouts have nothing to do with Voom or any provider. FSN paid for the exclusive Chicago rights to the game, ESPN paid for the national rights excluding the local markets. It's MLB rules that protect the local...

    To Me Getting HDNET or InHD is a moot point if...

    I don't know, you tell me. All I know is when I turn on my Voom box, I can't find INHD anywhere. According to reliable sources, INHD has been available to all providers including satellite from it's inception, yet none of the satellite providers has chosen to pick it up yet. And until one of...

    To Me Getting HDNET or InHD is a moot point if...

    All I want is for at least one provider to be able to provide all the HD channels. I really don't care who it is whether it be Voom, Directv or Comcast. I can't afford to carry multiple providers to achieve this. Right now I'm with Voom because they are the closest, but if Directv gets INHD...

    Which stations would you sacrifice for more HD?

    I watch BET, and um I don't think I'm the only one. Maybe noone watches it on your block. And BET is far from politically correct, in fact it shows alot of videos with rather negative stereotypes. But hey, you're the expert. C

    CHICAGO METRO AREA VOOM

    Well, in between pockets of rain, I got installed today. The installer had all kinds of problems getting the locals to come in. I had an antenna installed already that I knew got strong signal on all the locals, but none of the locals would come in. He switched OTA modules, then switched...
