So what is not true about what I said? There are 2 fox channels not in the package, they did promise a BUNCH of channels by the end of 2008 which was a flat out lie, and DirecTV has way more channels in HD. Just look at this forum. The Dish forum has as many HD programming issues threads...

Just got off the phone with Directv to discuss adding HD service. They offered me a free HD/DVR receiver, a second HD receiver for a $49 install fee, and free DVR service for a year. They are giving me an additional $10 off a month for a year because I've been with them for 5 years. I get to...
