Wow I'm sure I'll get hammered but to be honest, I'd rather have the interface, MUCH RATHER, on my old SD DirecTV Tivo than what I have on any of my 4 DirecTV DVR's now. Things used to work right and I loved the list guide as oppsoed to the GRID guide. I could look through the next 2 weeks of...

I think the expansion of internet to rural areas being funded by the Govt is for land based, such as DSL, Optical and cable. I know a lot of telco companies that are expanding, some with the help of the Govt's others on their own because if they take the help certain rules come with it...

We just have to face it. DirecTV under current management sucks. I've been planning a switch to DISH but had to cancel 1 appointment with them and never got it set back up. This deal is too good to pass up though.

Great! Two more channels I don't watch. Along with about 20 being added in May. Anyone see this article showing the real HD numbers? This is the way I feel the HD content should be counted. MediaBiz Real HD Count

Very Very disappointed in this list. Lots of sports and movie channels AGAIN. Just like D11. Guess it is time to look for alternatives after 16 years with DirecTV. Waiting for RFD-HD & AMC HD before Mad Men starts this fall. Neighbor had DISH for 8 years and just went back to cable...

Yeah I'm switching to myself after 15 years with DirecTV. I got very aggravated by the D11 launch and the joke of all the Sports HD channels instead of stuff I wanted. I'm paying $115.00 a month for 4 DVR's with NO Movie Channels and HD service on 1 set. I can get everything I want on...

The whole DMA thing is completely stupid. I live 40 miles SE of Chicago and 55 West of South Bend Indiana. My neighbor and my Dad have cable and gets all the South Bend Stations. I have DirecTV and keep thinking of going back to cable just to get the South Bend Indiana stations. All...

Yes I was in the window. Friday night about 10:10 (central) I first downloaded the CE on my HR20 which worked fine first try. I then tried it twice on the R15 and no go. I never got the "new software found". In fact after pressing the code it just continued to reboot both times as...

I've been downloading the CE software off an on for a couple years now. I don't seem to have much of a problem with my HR20 but my R-15's I am rarely successful. I've been having some issues with my R-15 and wanted to try the CE last weekend. Several attempts and could not get it to...

Now if they would do something about the unfair advantage of neighboring markets. Everyone where I live can get the Colts games on their antennas every week and also everyone with Comcast can see them. I have to buy NFL Sunday ticket to get them with DirecTV. This summer I'm putting up one...

I stand corrected on everything except for me D11 was big bust. So out of all that Hype, I got the following that my family watches. Fox News (which I thought was launched right before D11) Comedy Central ABC Family C&I (Very Rarely) 4 Channels out of all that hype. I just hope...

But when you start shopping which one will you use? HSN or QVC? Just kidding... LOL

Everyone who gets the HD Extra pack should just drop it in response to the rate hike. That is likely what I'll do. I hardly ever watch it anyway. Once in a great while something on HD Movie Net. But I can live without that.

I just hope D12 isn't the bust of D11. Waited and Waited and didn't get squat. National Sports Channels. I wanted a couple extra DVR's installed in our workout room and spare bedroom. I am waiting because I assume they'll try to lock me in for 2 more year. I don't want to do that...

I will definately be looking for AMC HD before Mad Men starts in the fall. One way or another I'll be wanting it. I want RFD HD as well. Honestly those are about the only 2 I care about that we don't have. I would probably get a movie channel or two back if they had all the HD feeds but...
