    I've called twice and still I get the same response. I just don't understand how they can just let Dish Network walk all over them with the offer of a FREE HD DVR.

    returning customer to D*

    I received a letter from Direct tv saying that they want me back as a customer. So I called to see if they have an offer comparable to Dish Networks. Well the answer I got was basically no. So my question is does anybody know if Direct tv plans to offer a deal similar to Dish Networks for a...

    45 GB HD DVD Tested.. bye bye Blu Ray

    That's true. From what I've read the PQ is bad. I would blame that on the porting process as the disk it self would not cause the bad PQ. They were just rush to market before they were polished. It's just bad presentation.

    45 GB HD DVD Tested.. bye bye Blu Ray

    I wouldn't say bye bye Blu-ray. Dual layer BR hold up to 50gbs and I think I read somewhere that Sony is work on a Quad layer BR disk with a capacity of 100GB :shocked.

    I wondered why Voom Died, Now I know!

    You also have to remember that is takes time to film NEW content and edit for the public. It just doesn't happen overnight. Bam we ahve a years worth of new HD content. It just isn't going to happen. Watch any new channel, HD or SD for the first year or 2 and you'll see the samething.

    Voomers Who Came To Dish, What's Your Take On the HD?

    I would have to disagree. I don't have the Voom channels yet on Dish but Discovery HD is definitely not as crisp as it was on Voom. When I get my second Dish installed I'll update about the Voom 10.

    How To Use Your Voom Dish With Dish Network..

    That sucks. I want Voom but I don't want all those dishes on my roof. I would think they would have it where everything is on one dish but I guess they just don't have the room on the sats to do that. I guess it's one of the drawback of satellite.
