    2011 DirecTV Package Channel Lists - Including Family & Select

    I've had D* for 15 years and they gave me the free HD access. So I guess existing customers can get the deal.

    February 2011 Price Increases

    You know that article is almost a year old and is talking about 2009's results. D* hasn't posted results for this year yet. However, the results will be positive.

    I just tried 271 and it worked fine for me.

    CES-2011 PR: DIRECTV and Samsung Showcase Multi-room DVR Technology On Samsung Smart TVs

    XP, read this information that Jason Crandall posted in the D* forum that he got from dbstalk. It sounds like what you're looking for.

    New 5 tuner Directv receiver.

    From what I read at the other site it will only need the one coax wire for all 5 tuners. Plus Earl Bonovich said he knows who talked to the poster that posted the info and said that if this particular D* employee said these things about this box, then you can take it to the bank.

    DISH Network Price Change

    Maybe I'm missing your point but I only pay $3 for D*'s Whole Home DVR

    279 Discovery Health

    Found this at the other site in regards to the OWN channel. So not only is getting this channel in HD doubtful, it could go away from D* in a couple of years.

    DIRECTV Completes Six Retransmission Deals

    I'm still waiting to hear that a deal has been reached with Comcast with regards to The Golf Channel. With the way the Versus deal went with Comcast I'm not hopeful. Maybe with their deal with NBCU still being reviewed, Comcast will play nicer this time.

    Dish may drop E! and Style

    I wonder if that is legal. Seems like that might violate some sort of FCC rule or be an issue with the NAB.

    Anyone downgrade their subscriptions and gone to NETFLIX for the movies?

    I don't have Dish but I have dropped all premium channels on D*. My monthly bill with Netflix runs about 19 and it includes two DVDs out at a time, streaming, Blu-ray and taxes. To get all of the premiums on D* would be close to 50.

    February 2011 Price Increases

    Supposedly HD VOD is coming early next year and there will be an increase in HBO/Max HD channels but SatelliteRacer is vague on the when and he says "but whenever technology and negotiations are going on, cannot be finite with a date as they often change." At this point I've dropped all premium...

    February 2011 Price Increases

    According to SatelliteRacer at the other site, the effective date is only 1 day off from last year for D*'s rate increase.
