I received a statement today from Voom, telling me I had a $15 credit coming. My last bill had a full months charge, which I noticed on my AX statement later, after they had gone off the air. I called Amex and they put in a partial credit for me, since I had been billed for a full month but...

Why not I'll stay. We've been quite happy with the content, picture quality, reception, etc. Having some issues with locals (in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area) that seem to be dropping, but other than that, no problems. My read of the issue is the E* bought the whole show and will either offer...

So I have been reading all the stories on here about Voom and wondered if I could avoid the credit card hassle. Called them up before my install but after my order was placed for an install end of July. Asked the CSR whether or not I should speak to acounting or could she help me. Advised I...

Yes, there is a difference, but it costs... Having spent a year and a half selling Monster cables (along with HDTVs, home theater, etc.) I can testify to some of the differences. Not everyone can tell that much of a difference just like not everyone can tell the differences between wines...

Just to report in, my install was this past Saturday morning. A Dallas/Ft Worth area company Metro Tech, did the work. Our installer was on time, courteous, knowledgeable and a pretty nice guy. Even though he charged me $80 to fish a coax line down an inside wall right next to my Comcast...

Look out, without that screen Mitsubishi uses a lenticular type of screen (under the glare/protective cover). This screen can be damaged or even ruined completely if you touch it with anything other than a lint free cloth made for that type of screen. Even then, I would be careful. I used to...

well, that depends... As most have noted, components seem to sometimes provide a 'warmer' set of tones or colors. DVI should be able to provide more detail, especially edge sharpness. One test we did at the store, when I worked for Ultimate Electronics, was to hook up a Samsung DVD (931)...

So here is the deal... We are moving this month to a location just a bit farther away from our local SBC spot and there is no DSL available. Since I also run a home business which relies on the Internet, I have to have high speed access. So, that means Comcast digital cable, as much as I...

It does! Just looked at TitanTV and noticed Voom was listed, at least here in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.

OK, I'm an idiot ... just noticed you had posted this inside the DirecTV forum! Oh well. The LG DirecTV receiver was a really good deal as I recall. DVI out and nice menus (better than Samsung). Slightly faster firmer I believe too. But no, not a DVR.

Why 12 months Unless I am mistaken, you said you were looking for an HDTV receiver. I assume you mean an off air ATSC receiver. If so, why would you need any committment? Used to work for a semi-national consumer electronics company and we sold DirecTV as well as ATSC tuners. Had good...

still thinking Appreciate the advice. I liked Starz but then some of the HBO content was entertaining as well. We do watch a lot of movies, mostly rented or owned... After reading some of the comments about Playboy, I might have to reconsider! Thanks. KeithQ

Hey folks, just joined and about to sign up for Voom. Can't decide which one of the plus packs to choose. Any advice? Only want to do one of the movie channels since we are also going to have Comcast digital (but not their limited HD selection). We've been on cable for several years with...
