    The Weather Channel....is BACK!

    Yeah, I haven't been coming around much in the last couple years. Now I am living in Colorado with no FIOS and back to DirecTV. DirecTV is coming a long way as far as HD goes. Thanks for the welcome back.

    The Weather Channel....is BACK!

    If I had to pick a channel to drop, TWC would certainly be in my top ten. Not only do I seldom watch it but it is annoying just passing it in the guide.

    Center Ice Standard Def? in 2011? what?

    Dude, I understand that Dish and DirecTV have most games in HD. But I was talking about cable and FIOS, who use In Demand for the feeds instead of their RSN feeds like satellite. I specified cable and FIOS. They only have one or two total HD feeds.

    Center Ice Standard Def? in 2011? what?

    If this is the case, who is carrying 9? I have FIOS and after signing up with CI I realized only up to TWO games were in HD per night but usually only one so I quickly canceled before I was billed and the season started. This is the case with cable. If anybody carries more than two in the cable...

    More HD 7/27

    They left spaces for Mormax west and Outermax. They must really be tight on space since they just didn't go ahead and add Outermax while they were at it. It may not seem like much but being able to say they have all eastern Max channels and not being able to say it is a pretty significant...

    New HD channels coming!

    I get A&E HD in my DirecTV package. Not sure which package Chip is talking about. It is AMC HD we are "bitching" about. A little bitch does help, even with DirecTV. We FINALLY GOT MORE HBO AND MAX CHANNELS after years of bitching. I will bitch about AMC HD as long as it takes.

    New HD channels coming!

    It isn't looking good as we started season 4 of Breaking Bad last night with AMC SD. This is the one channel over any other I want in HD immediately. Investigation Discovery and TCM too but AMC HD above all else at this point. Maybe before Mad Men returns in 2012.

    MAX GO

    I am waiting for it too. One would think they would get it out fast using the HBO template.

    Cinemax and HBO have been added

    AMC- Breaking Bad, Mad Men, Walking Dead TCM- classic films ID- crime shows that rock and many more... there is a ton of HD they should add

    Cinemax and HBO have been added

    The problem with the argument of everyone is that the elimination of SD channels isn't going to give the capacity to replace them all with an HD counterpart. Sure they would have space for more HD channels but not a replacement for all. They would have to eliminate less popular SD channels all...

    New HD channels coming!

    sounds good but "launching" sounds deceitful These name channels have existed for a while. Just to name a few, I All 26 HBO/MAX channels (east and west) in HD in 2008 or 2009 before I moved and lost FIOS. FIOS has since dropped a few like Actionmax HD west and Outermax HD west. Too redundant I...

    HBO Go App is Up!!

    Working great on my Android.. but.. HBO Go works fantastic on my Samsung Galaxy PDA with Android 2.2 but the only problem is the volume of the videos. I really need to use the headphones. I watch Youtube and other net videos all the time and listen to XM, Fox News Radio, and local radio all the...

    HBO & MAX On The Go

    "Go" in my opinion implies mobility and watching HBO/MAX on my PDA Android phone. It looks like it is just available for computers at this point but I am far more excited at the possibilities of watching it on the Android. Any confirmed word on that?

    February 2011 Price Increases

    Well, let's see.. the cost of almost EVERYTHING has gone up in the last 3-5 years and the government has spent "stimulus" money like a drunken sailor.The basic staples of life.. groceries, gas for the car, electricity just to name a few basics. They have all gone WAY up in the last few years. I...

    February 2011 Price Increases

    ...not to raise my prices this year for my service business and I am feeling the pinch. It is almost to the point where I HAVE to raise my prices. D* is probably in the same position. As a father who has to pay a babysitter, paying $40 for a half of tank of gas, the line where it becomes not...

    February 2011 Price Increases

    I mean "none" of the channels...... maybe it is time to turn off the TV before my brain completely loses it.

    February 2011 Price Increases

    I wouldn't mind the price increase if they would add channels like TCM HD, ID HD, more HBOs, and others. I have had Bright House along with my DirecTV for a few months and ultimately will stick with DirecTV. It is just too annoying dealing with remote and crummy DVR. It will mean known of the...

    Short "sighted," I think you mean short sighted. But we get the idea.

    Advise on hdmi cable.

    Why would I go out of my way to read your previous posts? I'll take your word for it. I was merely commenting on a thread (this one) as I came across it.

    Advise on hdmi cable.

    While all cables may not be "equal," there is certainly no justification for the price difference between a Big Lots $15 HDMI cable and a $150 Monster cable. Equal or not, the Monster cable isn't even twice as good as the Big Lots cable, let alone worth ten times the price. While your more...

    Disable Front Panel buttons

    That is easier said than done when you have an entire entertainment center setup. As the father of a current 2 1/2 year old, I know exactly what he is talking about. I am on my feet chasing the kid ALL DAY long from item to item. There is no such thing as baby-proofing a house. I don't care...
