    HD lite

    I warned many people about what D* had in mind last year at avs with my satire bit. I see now that it has come true. Many of you who don't care/mind will be regretting this decision if you ever have a big hdtv or FP. We are paying for something that isn't real hd. I see I need to bring back the...

    Rumor - Free Hd Equipment From Direct?

    Well, free is what it should be. Their equipment is full of bugs and they do not support what they have out now. HD-tivo could be great if they would fix the hdmi, hicups, and audio problems.

    June 15th Announcement?

    Anyone have a clue of how long we will be waiting? It is time for D* to stand up or get out. All these promises and half-truthes is getting old.

    Disgusted with Hd-Lite

    Good points. Waiting, waiting, and more waiting. I sure am not going to upgrade or make changes so they can make me commit to another year. My 1 year is up in october so hopefully by then we will get a clue.

    Disgusted with Hd-Lite

    Double/tripling their hd offerings? Yes they did that for maybe a handful of people but most maybe got one to two new hd channels in two years. Uhd being one of them. I am regularly lynched and ridiculed over this topic at AVS and DBSforums, join the club Reminds me of jeffthurmont who...

    Disgusted with Hd-Lite

    I hope you are correct because I have a lot of $ invested with D* at this point. A change wouldn't make sense. They have just lost my trust over the last few years with broken promises and half truths.

    Disgusted with Hd-Lite

    Kind of defeats the purpose of high definition. In fact I would say that good dvds are equal to most movie channel broadcasts on D*. With better sound.

    Disgusted with Hd-Lite

    I have been a very vocal member of several forums about this issue over the last few years. Things seem to be heating up and some people are actually seeing what a travesty this hd-lite thing really is. Being that D* is the leader/originator of hd-lite why is it that people think this will...

    Will you now get NFL-ST at $49 for the HD games?

    I will not. It's time we take a stand. At this point I am totally bored with D*.

    What if D* does add new HD channels? $

    The simple reply I see is just change providers. That however doesn't take into account what you have invested with them. I have the hdtivo and two other hd stbs. That is a lot of money tied up with them. I guess ebay is one option but with D*'s announced plan stbs are not worth what they used...

    What if D* does add new HD channels? $

    Gosh- I am afraid to think of the $ increase once D* does add new channels to the package. It wouldn't be so bad if we just paid for HD but they force us to pay for all the crap sd channels too. You know that espn2 and Tnt will come at a price but what if they add more? We could actually be...

    Get out your wallet. ST in HD now $318.00

    They can have it. I'm calling asap and cancelling -this is an outrage. I suspect in a few months D* will be compared to many cable companies. Evil as cable has been D* is along side of them now.

    Countdown to June

    They will announce that they will be doubling/tripling their hd offerings like they did last year. I recieved UHD that was it.

    Get out your wallet. ST in HD now $318.00

    These guys from D* are a bunch of brainiacs. How in the world can they justify the increase for things that we can't even view. I kind of hope that this preposed big announcement in June isn't that great so I can drop and be done with them. Having them for three years has been a big disappointment.

    June announcement

    E* currently offers 15 channels for something like $15. That seems pretty fair to me. D*'s pricing for what they offer is high especially now that it is compressed badly. ST is now not a factor for me so I am giving D* to the end of June to make an announcement. If it doesn't blow me out of the...

    June announcement

    I sure hope all of this is true and we will be happy in a few months. That would be a nice change. After investing thousands of $ into D* equipment it seems they have disappointed me a great deal over the years. I am waiting on this announcement to see if I will stick around or move on. They...

    June announcement

    Actually Vurbano, I have been a very vocal member at avs about D*s quality/quantity issues. You have read many posts of mine about these issues. All of my (apologist)posts were intended to be sarcastic. Some got it some didn't. I just got fed up with getting ripped by the same 5-10 members that...

    June announcement

    I sure hope they do. Some of their channels are popular and they would be smart to add a few of them. Although they might create similiar channels to what Voom had. I guess we will find out in a few weeks.

    June announcement

    I think it would be awesome if D* added the Voom channels. Monstershd is a must have for me. I thought Scott reported that D* would not be adding those channels though. Thought I read that somewhere?

    Get out your wallet. ST in HD now $318.00

    Hi guys, I will not pay for ST this year. In fact I have cut some of my services. This whole hd thing is getting out of hand and I will not pay extra for what we recieved last year. Ap.
