Just wondering, how does Directv determine which movies to show in HD on the HD PPV channel? It seems when I want to see a particular movie, they will not show it in HD.
 
Wouldn't I like to know the answer to this one!!! I'd e-mail Bob but I doubt he filters down that low on the food chain. I would imagine you are of the same opinion I am and that is ... "let's find the worst PPV sellers and run them in HD so we might make an extra buck."
 
Whatever their approach is, it sucks! Seriously, I won't consider ordering a PPV that is not in HD, so they won't get any more PPV$ from me for a while. Not that I'm a PPV junkie that is putting all the D* exec's kids through college or anything, but I was always good for 1 or two a month in the past. Here's an idea... if you need more bandwidth for more HD, drop about 5 of the friggin shopping channels. Wouldn't miss em. How could I with all the others still there?
