    Dish / Gannett Dispute Settled! No Channel Removals!

    Actually all my MPLS locals are having Pixelation. I don't think it has anything to do with the Gannett situation.

    Dish / Gannett Dispute Settled! No Channel Removals!

Lost for a couple days. Sportsnet in NY. Loss. CBS/Viacom lost for 2 days. FSN, FX, NGC threat. last year I Think...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    I just got of the phone from the "special retention team" number. They said the HDMI cable is being sent, because they don't want to assume that I already have one. In my opinion, I think DISH has handled this whole AMC issue amazingly. They are bending over backwards to keep us as happy as...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    Just got a confirmation email from Dish (after they said they'd send me a roku). It shows that they are sending me an HDMI cable?!? I see nothing about a roku player. LOL. Hopefully they just put it in as HDMI, because they have No normal code for sending out a Roku player.

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    Thanks for the heads up. Saved me another 20+ minutes I would have been waiting for my CHAT Queu. They offered me the roku, plus $10 credit for 6 months and Half off my hbo/starz package for 6 months. Not bad, considerig they are not forcing people to sign a new contract for these credits. I...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    I Think they may be running out of Roku's. I was only offered my Premiums at a discount for 6 months. NO mention of a ROKU. I bated them as best I could. And they would not take it. ON to an account specialist. Number 55 in QUEU. 55 minute expected wait time. I'm actually looking for a reason to...

    Streaming with Blockbuster Thread

    I'm bummed to hear so many having streaming issues. But at the same time, I'm glad I didn't join it yet (clearly it's still more of a beta than it is a full rollout). I'll wait until they can get the service up and running the way it really needs to. What they really need to do is Talk to the...

    DISH / Blockbuster Announcement Discussion Thread!

    I am dissappointed to hear it's such a pain of a process to get a stream started. Do they AT LEAST have a good selection of Video Games?

    To those of you thinking this should be free if you already get Platinum HD for free, I think your'e asking for a Bit Much. You've been getting 20 HD channels for a while now that you Used to have to pay $10 for. Now you think you should keep getting them free, along with being able to stream...

    Anybody else notice that the added 20 great channels are the HD platinum channels? So I could add this for $10, get rid of my HD Platinum and save $10. Is that right, or am i seeing this wrong?!?

    All these login problems. I think this might be Part of why this wasn't open for BB users yet. They need to make sure their servers can handle the DISH subscribers. And so far it looks like they can't. I Think I'll wait until the 922 is added to the list of receivers.

    DISH / Blockbuster Announcement Discussion Thread!

    Considering almost every 922 software update has caused a few problems here and there, I imagine they're a bit hesitant to add a completely new Icon option that might screw up everything. They're not exactly known as having quality programmers. So my wife can get this in her craft room (722K)...

    DISH / Blockbuster Announcement Discussion Thread!

    So I wonder what the policy will be on games. Are we going to be allowed One Movie, AND One game out at a time, or will it be one or the other?

    Well, I'm a bit impressed. Not sure I want to join until I KNOW they have a Reliable 922 rollout. But even without it, it still might be worth trying for the blu ray and video game options. Just wish they hadn't closed every BB store withing 20 miles of me.
