oops!! it looks as if this topic has already been posted.. my bad

I read this article on multichannel.com. both starz and disney is suing dish. apparently us dish subscribers are not suppose to have the starz/ encore channels for for 12x. Starz claims that they did not agree to this. here is a link of the article again i find this to be quite intresting...

well it's been almost 12 hrs since the launch of this channel. i've read up on it and it doesn't look like fearnet has any distributors at the moment. so it's a no go across the board i work at comcast and here in my office i don't see the channel on our guide at all. it's not looking good for...

i think directv should add epixhd as oppose to sony.. i am a dish customer and i have both channels. epix wins hands down i've watched a couple movies on the *new* sony channel and their annoying banner at the top right of the screen ruins the movies. if i were a svp of programming for directv i...

i actually called in last night to inquire about this mysterious starz promo. the rep informed me that enable to get starz free for 3 months, you have to sign up for paperless billing/ auto pay. i am all for paperless billing....but i'm going to pass on the auto pay.

i just finished chatting with a dishnet chat rep. she informed me that the current starz &hd platinum promo is on hold. i found that to be a little weird my assumption is the promo doesn't go into affect until 10/?/2010 so they can't proactively offer the promo, until they get the okay from the...

appreciate the input.. i guess it's just one of those things that's set in stone. oh well it is what it is.... thanks dish :up

i haven't tried upgrading my service... i was able to downgrade from at 250 to at 200. then a few weeks later once the seasons ended over on hbo i tried to remove it, and it gave me that error message.

i recently performed a downgrade from at 250 w/ hbo to at 200. once the new seasons of " true blood", "hung", and "entourage" were over i downgraded. one of the things that i've always found cool about dish was the ability to add and or remove programming online. but what puzzles me is you can...

just spoke with a rep through online chat. i am having a replacement sent out... i decided 3 powercycles was 3 to many. so we will see how this replacement works out.

@ the krell the box is in a well ventalated area. i have a glass t.v stand that is exposed. it's weird because the commands like fast forward, rewind, pause all work fine. i would have it on a channel, and i would try and change it then it would freeze up then power cycle. hmmm wirdness i...

i have the vip hd/dvr 612.. i''ve noticed lately that it has been shutting off a lot :mad: . i would be in the middle of watching a program, it would freeze frame then cut off. is there a software upgrade, or some sort of signal that can be sent to the box to resolve this issue? feels like i...

hmm i don't really see the logic in all of this. i mean i have the at 200 w/ platinum and i get both epix, epix 2. i dont understand why they ( dish ) would just add Epix 3 to the platinum pk both hd/ standard. but i guess for the people who are non platinum subs need a little love too, oh...

i agree epix is one of the better channels that dish has added in a long while. i watch this channel a lot, i just caught saw vi, and paranormal activity. the other night both for the first time.

it's funny b/c comcast here in sacramento carries the cw in hd. i've come to the conclusion that we wont see the cw in hd in sacramento any time soon. were stuck with the sd version oh well!!!!
