I actually did this on the Dish Network side. Got Apple TV but realized it wasn't anywhere near what I was looking for, at least not yet. Once it becomes more of a priority for Apple and less of a hobby (their words not mine) I'll consider it. For right now I'm close to giving up on sports...

Soon?

Some nights he couldn't even do that.

If Voom comes back and it gives us even more choice, then super! But when you have the Voom complainers infecting threads that have nothing to do with Voom, then it becomes an issue. Like I said, Voom is gone, if it comes back, fine, if not, that's fine too. I found a few things to like about...

Because it makes about as much sense as complaining about why Betamax is gone. Is Voom coming back? Don't know, don't care. And if I didn't read a voom thread that would eliminate about 75 percent of the dish network forum on account of the people who can't get over the fact that 15 little...

I did the HBO/Starz deal, I may do the Max paperless billing deal next, and probably add Showtime since HBO/Starz will be free for 3 months also.

Some of the 'talent' that's come out of Idol in the past few seasons has been pretty bad. Carrie Underwood is the only winner that's done worth a damn with album sales, and really the only one I'll listen to. Most of the better shows are on cable, I missed 'The Wire' because of getting rid...

I was hoping to get my RSNs in HD by this time, but the Rockies are stinking it up this year, and the Avalanche will be well into the season by the time February rolls around, so I can wait. I find most of the games aren't in HD to begin with, hopefully that changes with this upcoming season.

I think Bay will be a better player overall, Manny's defense stinks on ice, and he became too much of a distraction in the club house. Even the players wanted him out of there.

Now that regular Encore is in HD, I wouldn't mind seeing the rest of the Encore suite, Westerns, Sci-Fi, etc....I miss the Westerns channel since moving to all HD.

ESPNews HD took about 3-4 weeks didn't it?

I'll give it till football season, Basketball doesn't start getting interesting until the Final Four. I wonder if CBSCS will be broadcasting the lesser conferences tournaments (Like the Patriot League or Missouri Valley Conference for instance). Maybe the games they don't have room for on...

Ordered. Was able to do it online, took all of 30 seconds. I now have what could be called a 'crapload' of HD. Question though (kind of a dumb one), does the 24-Month commitment mean you can't upgrade or downgrade? Or does that just mean you can't cancel for 24 months?

I'll likely wait until the 'ala-carte' stuff becomes available so I don't have to hear Howard Stern or O&A.

Maybe one day we'll get to see Jennifer and Bailey in HD on WKRP. :cool:

They don't call it 'Televison for Victims' for nothing. :D I'm looking forward to seeing what Discovery Green is all about.

I used to be the same way. I'd watch the preseason games, the NFL Replays on NFL Network during the off-season, I'd even watch the NFL Draft (which is a lot like watching paint dry if you're team isn't the one picking). Now Football is pretty much a distant third to Hockey and Baseball, and I...

Or don't care for sports much at all. I used to be a huge fan of sports, had to have Sunday Ticket, Center Ice and every package available. Now who needs it. That's what makes Dish Superior for me, Voom was nice, and I was wowed by the PQ on the first night of having Dish, but the constant...

Best: Al Michaels, Vin Scully, Jim Nantz, Greg Gumbel, Jon Miller, Dick Enberg. Worst: Bryant Gumbel, Hawk Harrelson, Dick Vitale, Billy Packer.

Yeah, who approved THAT deal!

I know that was the case for me for a long time. Now I have a job that's 3 miles one way by car. And a car that gets pretty decent gas mileage (28 MPG average last I checked) so I'm not too concerned. However that doesn't prevent me from paying skyrocketing prices on everything else that's...

Despite one more freeze in the broadcast, the PQ is awesome and it's a good game. 2-2 in extra innings. Cubs tied it with a home run in the 9th.

What you do see is less everywhere else, the line at starbucks is shorter than ever. Most car dealerships around here can't BUY a sale unless it's a hybrid. Even the highway seems a lot less crowded during rush hour while bus ridership is skyrocketing.

PTI and Outside the Lines are the only 'non-games' content on ESPN that is watchable. That said they do have some of the better 'game announcers' on TV. Jon Miller is my favorite Non-Vin Scully baseball broadcaster.
