MGM HD channel looks great, alot of westerns are listed.
I'm letting my DISH 6000 retire and going cold turkey with only OTA and FTA to see I can survive...but may be lured back for the HD only package in future, if they add some interesting channels like MGM...

I'm really hoping for CNN HD. I know that sports are important in HD, but I'm a news junkie too, and surely talking news heads have to be at least as competitive as these alleged HD fish that are coming our way!
I'm not quite sure on that, um would these pics help?

I just finally want the missing 5 Voom channels 
then add USA for Monk and Smithsonian.
I guess no one sees that lurking in the background.

I'll take USA and Scifi, NESNHD would be nice but I'll wait till April. Anyways, there are no new channels, this is just a ploy to get new pub members.
OK.. on the eve of us *FINALLY* getting some new channels tomorrow... D* had to ruin my moment of glory by adding more!
"According to [the other white meat of satellite forums] there will be six HD channels being launched tomorrow, Disney, Toon Disney, MTV2HD, ChillerHD, OutdoorHD,and BETHD lets see if that happens"
I hate you D* I would love the real MTV in HD as well as MTV2HD. Chiller wouldnt be bad too i guess! Sigh....

Dish will probably give up and wait to do 20 at once, now. At least DIRECTV is keeping pressure on Dish.
they are but lets not forget, I am sure Dish would be doing the same if they had the satellites up there, they are coming we just have to give them time!
But E* is going to be adding more HD without any new satellites being launched so they've had the capacity to add these channels all along? Why didn't they add what's rumored to be coming months ago?
About the DirecTV new HD channels rumor, I just got a note from one of my contacts at DirecTV it says...
I think they have to be careful with what capacity they have left....also I would agree with some that as of right now they are just getting on the horse again as they did have a sale supposedly happening...but I think they are provisioning their bandwidth and reclaiming what was up there and as we get closer to the sat launches they are loosening their grip, and that is majority of the holdup
Pretty compelling! I'm not sure if they are quite ready to light those spotbeams yet, but it could definitely be a match.
D*'s own website does say that 4 Disney-owned HD channels will be coming:
Disney
Toon Disney
ABC Family
ESPNews
Yes those are coming but not sure if they will be up tomorrow or not.
I believe I saw something in Multichannel and if I remember correctly those are launching at the end of the month.
But yes they ARE coming.
