    Suprised to see Dish now costs just as much as Comcast

    Great point! After being with Comcast for almost 2 years it's been like heaven with this 722 DVR! Can't believe how well it just works! The Comcast DVR's (at least the motorola's) were very Buggy, and just weren't well thought out in terms of functionality. The equipment alone is reason enough...

    That's exactly what I was pointing out, if your local Comcast has a ton of HD, (as mine has) BEWARE....the compression is horrible, makes some Channels difficult to watch.

    Suprised to see Dish now costs just as much as Comcast

    Having just switched from Comcast to Dish, I have gotten a better deal, however all in all prices are pretty comparable across the board with *all* providers, my reasoning for switching was mainly do to the horrible compression on HD channels comcast is allowing. I had Comcast still in place the...

    Just wanted to know if it was possible to play all the episodes back to back within a specific group folder, without having to start them manually one right after another? Thank you.

    What HD channels are coming?

    VOOM... as in "micro-stutter" tv right? LOL.... yeah it's good to be back, with some decent HD pq, and alot more choice in programming. Been with Comcast since the demise of VOOM, but they just recently degraded their HD pq, and it is ugly! With Directv, I've got that pop back in my HD picture!

    What HD channels are coming?

    I have returned to Directv, after having dealt with comcast long enough, and I am pretty impressed with all the HD channels D* has to offer. My question is what could they possibly add next? Is there honestly any other HD channels out there? It seems that they have pretty much covered it all. I...

    The "Just switched to D*" bandwagon

    Update: Today I had an installer come out, and he tested everything for me, and right away knew my problem was a bad LNB. He changed it, and everything is working fine now. Man I can't help but kick myself for not coming to back to Directv sooner. I just can't get over the amount of HD...

    The "Just switched to D*" bandwagon

    Just switched over from Comcast. Couldn't see paying what I was for a soon to be degraded PQ. I used to have Directv, years ago, some may remember me here in these forums, but most may not... I've been away since the demise of VOOM, anather service I had. Anyway, Directv installed today, and I...
