I spoke with Robert last week when I ordered an HD-TiVo. I got the $200 rebate for Voom subs so I get a heck of a deal on the HD-TiVo for coming back to DirecTV!

You can still get HD porn on DirecTV, but you will pay $15 per 90 minutes. No monthly sub offer there.

chrem88, you only have one ball? Hmm, talk like that cost John Bobbit more than that, but I think he learned his lesson. Maybe you didn't... How about a little class here?

Indy, Martin Logan speakers sound great and one of their systems was rated AAAA by Stereophile Guide to Home Theater. The Infinity IRS series sounded more like Martin Logans than traditional cone/dome speakers but not quite. The Logans are electrostatic while the Infinity IRS were...

Firebird, I have heard BOSE systems and they have all sounded very poor compared to systems that cost less. Paper cone drivers in a plastic box with spring clips and no crossovers is not a good speaker design. Technically, you are right - I haven't heard systems that come close to sounding...

If I heard BOSE would no longer be around, I would be happy that people would get better sound for less money with ANY other brand that isn't sold from the back of a white van. PS, if you want to see what some of the best speakers ever made look like, check out the link in my signature.

Perhaps they should allow a free preview period. I think that Wealth HD is aimed at people who are in the VaVaVoom price point, though.

Yeah, if something promised is a day late, it is obvious that the sky is falling. Add one more notch to the "Voom is dead assumption pole" and I swear that Voom will be around when the pole is reduced to a toothpick.

Sorry, but that isn't correct. It would take 500,000 subs at $50/month to generate $75 million per quarter in revenue, but Voom doesn't keep all that money. They have to pay CNN, Fox News, ESPN, etc. a price per subscriber and that would mean that much of that money would go to them and...

1.2 million shares traded. I don't see where all 1.2 million shares came from one person. Look here: http://moneycentral.msn.com/detail/stock_quote?Symbol=CVC The average daily volume of CVC stock is 2.97 million shares, so 1.2 million traded by 10:45am isn't a big deal. Also, there are...

I don't know who would expect the DVR to rent for $5/month when they rent their receivers for $10/month. Perhaps the rental will be $10/month for the DVR plus a $5 DVR fee and $5 per client.

And the closer they get to the breakeven point, the less money they will lose per quarter!

They may even have to send ESPN to film the board meeting. I am sure the smackdown would make the top 10 plays of the week!

I cannot check out the help link because my security settings prevent the applet from starting. Enough other people are verifying this that I am a believer now that it is legit. While you may not care enough to fake a site, there are people who do. Some are lazy and just troll and others are...
