And you settling for BAD CRACK and willfully paying for it! :confused:

Hello... I can watch most of these channels in standard def. All you are paying for is maybe one third of real, native HD programming on SOME of the channels. Everything else badly upconverted, it looks better in SD. I'm not bitter, I just don't understand paying more for maybe 30% of real HD...

Actually, if I'm going to PAY extra for HD, I'd like it to be HD. If more than half of the programming is not native HD than don't charge me anything extra for it. I know when you are all drinking the Kool Aid it's hard to come to terms with reality. Enjoy those grainy "HD" movies, and all of...

Uhm, Yes really. If you buy this HD pitch, I guess you'll be buying that swamp land too. Not sure where you are coming from.

I thought Sat Guys were savvy tech people? You guys are getting all wet about all of these HD channels. Do you really think all of these channels are HD? Or just feeding SD to a big screen and calling it HD? How can all of these channels have already amassed HD libraries? Biography HD? ABC...

There is no way VH1, MTV and CMT will be able to deliver real HD channels. If you are okay with a network or provider (Direct TV) telling you a channel is HD when it's mostly upcoverted, bad looking SD programs, good for you. I call it misleading at best and lying at worst. What do you think...

Rave HD is kicking some HD butt! Looks a great month for HD music!

Not a valid question The question does not warrant a yes or no answer. Whatever the question is trying to prove can not be proven. Is SD supposed to validate the programming? It doesn't. HD is a new medium and some things are much better in HD than they are in SD. So if you answer "No" it...

There were three brand new epsiosdes of Beatuiful Noise in October, the Ponys 10/5, Apples in Stereo 10/12 and still be seen, Voxtrot on 10/19. Sean, how did you miss these lstings? I'm sure these will be running through the rest of the year. It seems that Rave premiers all its new stuff on...

MHD is a commercial channel, they live and die by the ratings. It won't be very long until they go the way of every other MTV Network and abandon music totally for those crazy freak shows. Can't wait to see Flava Flav in HD. Not!

I've had MHD for about a year. After two weeks you will have seen just about everything they offer. They must have about 20 hours total. There is also nothing exclusive, everything on MHD has been on MTV, VH1 or CMT. Seems like MHD isn't much of a priority. I think they run six hours a day and...

Seen it. I'm pretty sure that one was shot in 24p, which works in HD. It's a good show, Rave also had Lindsey Buckingham.

Just a few differences, Rave has "0" commercials, it is a non-commercial service. Rave does not play videos because, as I have said before, there are very few videos in HD. The majority of MHD's videos are SD upconverted to fuzzy HD. You may like the music viceos, but let's be honest, it's not...

No Comparison I have both services. I have to tell you there is no comparison. Rave is so far ahead of MHD. MHD has been playing the same rehashed programs as long as I have had them on my system. I posted this once before, if you think Rave has a high repetition factor then you SHOULDN'T see...
