    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    Vooms programming was the best. OHMS i have to say your right about Voom's programming it was breathtaking. As for the equipment my 18" Voom Dish didn't work well when it was raining. Rain fade was a big problem for me any time it would rain. I did get upgraded to a 24" dish and my rain fade...

    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    Mdonnelly i think Voom could have been very successful if they had a larger customer base. I know local channels were a problem for some people who couldn't receive them over the air for what ever reasons. As for higher rates they could have been the same as D* or E* but i would still like to...

    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    Happy Holidays from me to all of you x Voomers. If Voom could have signed 100,000 scribers the first year it would still be going strong. They only had 40,000 scribers in 1.5 years.

    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    I remember all the complaining and bitching about Voom too. Some of it was fair and some of it wasn't. Does anyone know what the Dish Network is doing with the old Voom Satellite? I haven't heard anything about Rainbow One in months.

    A Pivotal Week for VOOM

    How would EchoStar transfer Voom Subscribers over to the Dish platform? You say that E*would likely buy Vooms programming suite in addition to the satellite TV service. Does this mean Rainbow1 will keep transmitting for E* even if Charles Dolan doesn't get any backers to help its struggling...

    Will there be a statement today???

    I don't think releasing the DVR on 3-28-05 is going to happen if Voom has to shut down on 3-31-05 rumor or not.

    DVR delay question...

    I too would like to have the DVR. But to be honest the board meeting that takes place on Monday is the only thing that i am thinking about. I also would be happy if they just work on getting software and hardware problems worked out.
