    XFinity App for AppleTv

    I've got Comcast tv and internet but I can't load the xfinity streaming application on my Roku XD. I meet all the minimum requirements Comcast listed for getting the streaming application to work on my Roku. I've tried downloading it and it looks like it's working but it doesn't show-up in my...

    NHL Center Ice with NHL.TV

    I've been on this site longer than you have so no trolling here, thanks. My question was serious. You put out a comment and I'm responding to what you said (that's why people comment here, isn't it?). Based on your stated preferences in programming, and Dish's lack of meeting those...

    NHL Center Ice with NHL.TV

    We'll, that's a very nice comment and it sure does move the discussion along! Other providers have the service you're looking for so will you be switching because of this?

    NHL Center Ice with NHL.TV

    Yes, it does because that's how Dish set it up right now. You have other options to watch TV, Center Ice, and NHL.TV. If it's that important to you then you should take advantage of those options. And adding a :-) at the end of your posts doesn't make the post any nicer or cover the...

    NHL Center Ice with NHL.TV

    Correct. Nothing is 'free', you're paying for it when DirectTV increases other prices to cover that cost.

    NHL Center Ice with NHL.TV

    With what I'm saving using Dish instead of DirectTV I can afford NHL.TV and a few Starbucks coffees each month. I'm glad Dish's is making those deals to keep the monthly costs down while people who want those extras have plenty of other options to get them.

    Best solution for keeping snow off my dish

    All groovygoat does is post replies about dish armour (misspelled on purpose). It's the poster who should be locked for spam.

    Animal Planet GO, etc, not offered for DISH?!

    Every one of those "Go"-type channels costs money to create and operate. I'd rather have a lower monthly payment than pay more for a "Go" channel I won't watch. It's great that we have options to pay more or less depending on what we want.

    That would explain why I'm seeing more Cubs games on WGN recently than I have in years. I thought they just moved the games there to annoy the Dish customers into calling. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I got the RCA antenna but no USB adapter so I can't plug it into my Hopper. I didn't need thing I'll find a package on my front porch.

    Got my free HD OTA Antenna today

    I have to agree with Miner, without the OTA adapter it's very difficult to make good use of the antenna. I'm happy that Dish handed these out and I'm not complaining about something I received for free, it's just that it ended up having no value to me.
