    Last VOOM Statement

    I received my bill today. What's funny is that the due date is June 13th. I think someone doesn't know what they're doing in the mail room. lol On the back it stated that I could keep my voom receiver for locals and that in order to receive the VOOMHD channels that I would need to subscribe...

    Here's the Real EchoStar deal for Voomers...

    I sure hope that they don't make me sub to at60 just to lease an 811. Cause without my 500 installed there's no way I'll be able to watch

    Here's the Real EchoStar deal for Voomers...

    I've got one of the trickiest install/hookups/lease options there is. First I own a 301, a dish 500 (currently not installed) and a voom dish. I don't want to pay the $50 to have someone come out and install it cause I'll be signed to a 1yr agreement. All I want is the voom channels. Anybody...

    VOOM is TOAST, Let's move on !

    I have found myself watching LRW over the past couple of days when I found Laverne & Shirley, Caroline in the city. I'm going to miss these shows again when voom is gone. I'm already missing voom with The Discovery HD Theather & HGTV gone. My box says no signal. It's been like that since late...

    Dolan Backs Off Plan to Shrink CVC Board

    BRAVO BRAVO, your the second person on this board to mock me. Also where do you get the word friends from? He did fire 3 board memebers who opposed dolan for probably the entire time VOOM's been around. Geez, I don't think I could fire my friends, nor could they fire me. Whether you call them...

    moved to E*

    Everyone around here knows that unless the FCC denies the sale of the sat to E* then cvc will just either let it sit up there and rot or they will seek out another buyer. Seriously though if VOOM is gone then there would be no reason that E* can't have the sat right? With that sat then E* will...

    Screwed By VOOM

    WOW! I didn't realize that being such a "drama queen" got under your nerves. I'm sorry NOT. If you don't like my posts then hit that little button I like to call IGNORE. So that I don't bother you. I can't image how many people you've put on ignore. Probably a whole lot more than I can count on...

    VOOM Shutdown Update

    May 1st at 3:00 EST. If you look up the poster's profile you'll notice that she/he just signed up today and has no other posts. Either a really village idiot or just a troll. Listen to Scott & Sean. If they don't know something then good chances are that no one knows.

    moved to E*

    Why should either dtv or dn raise their HD package rates? I think $9.99 - $10.99 is a fair price to pay for: ESPN, TNT, Universal, HDNET, HDNET Movies, and VOOM21. Dish already has the compasity to carry Universal & VOOM21 on the 61.5 location using the voom sat and Directv should have the...

    Dolan Backs Off Plan to Shrink CVC Board

    Maybe Dolan has decided to longer fight because he has had it with Cablevision. So he's decided to wait until after VOOM is shutdown and then he's going to pickup the pieces, sell the shares or put the company up for sale and then reopen VOOM as the best HD service available today/tomorrow and...

    Screwed By VOOM

    I've done a lot of thinking and I think this so called conversion center is/was created by little jimmy. I can't imagine anyone else wanting to spend this much money to try and convience people to signup with e*. I'll bet you that jimmy and ergen have a deal that jimmy get's a little bonus with...

    Screwed By VOOM

    It is a good possibility that it is something between voom and echostar considering no one has reported that directv has called them. It's kinda funny though, we used my roomate's name for voom and she has not received a call or letter from these people. But if it was something between E* and...

    Dolan Backs Off Plan to Shrink CVC Board

    As long as the channels don't become exclusive to cable I'll be happy wherever the voom21 ends up. As of right now the only place that I see them surviving is with echostar on the voom sat. All they have to do is move everything that's broadcasted on the echostar 3 sat and put it on the voom sat...

    Screwed By VOOM

    This so-called "Conversion Center" advertising thing has to be pretty expensive. Any ideas on who/what got it started T?

    Work Continues On Voom Satellites

    as of today their only 28 months. Also I belive the press release stated that the first would be completed and launched in about 34 months. I could be wrong but personally I don't think it takes 34 months to build a satellite unless it's so complex and new technology that it's going to take...

    Interesting story in the SKY Report about VOOM....

    I think it's interesting because their still talking about this organization.

    Work Continues On Voom Satellites

    these sats were strictly designed for television. They could be used for satellite telephone and internet but I seriously doubt it. Also Lockeed Martin has not been paid from what I understand for the 2,3 or 4th sat. Once the building of the other 4 starts I believe that's when they are paid. I...

    Work Continues On Voom Satellites

    To be honest, I'm surprised that cablevision didn't cancel the sat contracts on January 20th when they sold rainbow 1. Charles did say that he's accepted that voom would not be part of the cablevision family but that wouldn't mean that voom wouldn't be part of his life. So unless Charles had a...

    Adelphia and Time Warner listed as Cable Providers on MonstersHD.com?

    a little offtopic note but has anyone heard about: The Horror Channel. http://www.horrorchannel.com Sounds pretty cool, They haven't been picked up yet by anyone.

    Cablevision board meeting today???

    Ok the stock is down because of the writeoffs. Just imagine, if VOOM was "let loose" to be controlled privately by the Dolan family, would look like now.

    New Letter From Voom

    If they would have released the dvr back in November would it have worked? I'd have to say yes. I do belive it was working back then. Was it finished? Apparently not but they could have sent us updates on a nightly basis as well to show us that atleast they cared. There is a good chance that...

    Voom to disable OTA tuner in STB?

    I think that vurbano has to points here that we are failing to understand: 1) Voom did not give us the credit that we deserve to install these systems our selves so why should we go through the trouble of having to disconnect these systems and return them to whoever wants them. If they have...

    just got of the phone with a csr

    I talked with All Installs, the company that fixed my voom install, and they had a conference call yesterday with voom and they weren't being specific with the equipment. So it appears that the only equipment voom wanted/wants back was the equipment retailers & installers had. Other than that...

    Filing alleges Dolan's ally is fake BY HARRY BERKOWITZ STAFF WRITER April 14, 2005 Even though the story of Voom seemed all but ended, a 43-page filing made public yesterday provides more evidence of how bizarre the battle over the satellite TV service has been between Cablevision...

    Where is a good comparison of other options?

    Do I need to call DirecTV in order to get that deal. It sounds pretty good, unfortunately it's not listed on their site.
