This is not what I was told by a certain person at the executive offices. Even though this would be my only receiver DVR fee would increase to 10 and I would still have to pay the 17.00 lease fee because it is sling loaded.

Correct Comcast and Direct TV have it. Neither side will say why its not on.

And once again, Twins fans with Dish Network are screwed over.

Does this sit well with you? According to the people replying, you shouldn't have a problem with it.

Are you kidding me? Dish Network has Fox Sports North in HD. There was an HD feed of the game. Direct TV and Comcast had this game in HD on their Fox Sports North HD channels. Why did dish not show it? If Dish did not have a FSN North channel, or Direct TV and Comcast did not have the HD...

So if you paid for a Tigers ticket down by the dugout, and they come up to you and say.. sorry you can't sit here, you have to sit on the top row in the upper deck, would you be OK with that? I'm assuming no. If none of the carriers carry it then fine. But if direct tv and comcast has it in...

I'm fine with the part-time HD RSN. But if there is a game on that is broadcast in HD, they damn well better put it on. Last night in MN was the opening of the new ballpark. Comcast and DirectTV got to see it in HD on Fox Sports North, but not all of us good ol Dish subscribers.

For at least 12 months (stated in original post). At that time I will explore all options again.

So you are saying that Turbo Bronze and Silver are right now getting MTV, VH1, and Nick?

I had a 10.00 increase in February (turbo gold). So the people that paid no price increase (hd absolute) get the same new channels as me, The people that paid a 5 buck and a 7 buck increase (turbo bronze and silver), get the same new channels as me. The people that that paid a 3 buck increase...

Scott, Just curious, you showed a slide from the last retailer chat, that showed the viacom channels and the date April 1st. I'm assuming they give you that info to aid you as a retailer to entice customers to sign up. So they haven't even given you retailers an official statement as to why...

I sent them (engadget hd) an email on the 1st when what was promised did not happen. Never heard anything back from them or have seen anything on the website.

They are counting PPV and ondemand. I asked this very question via email. I have the email at home, I will post the answer tonight.

Borgie would also like a 922!
