    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    Ahh, the B/W to Color switch. I was just a puppy when that happened, but I do remember. First, color programing was backward compatible, you didn't have to change a thing on your B/W set to watch it. Second, we didn't have to pay EXTRA to get the color content. Just buy the set and you got all...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    Face it, they do not care about what we want, the reasons why we chose E* over D*, or anything else. All they care about is the income. As long as we continue to pay for non HD programming being labeled as HD, we are going to take it in the shorts. The only thing that will get their attention is...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    Details...details. Resolution, the percentage, etc can all be worked out. The idea here is, quit selling a channel that offers little HD content as an HD channel. If they want to put these channels into the regular SD tiers, that would be ok. You could buy an HD sports pack, and then get the...

    How Long Have You Had HD With Dish?

    wow... both dish and direct... that must hurt a lot. I had direct back when they first came out, when I was in san diego. dumped our local cable for them. I had been one of the first 100 to sign up for cable in our community. Service sucked, no surprise. Direct was better, for a while, then...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    Excuse me? if a seller cannot sell something that is not what it is claimed, then it will be up to the channel, say TBS, to ensure that their HD programming meets the definition. Dish, and all the other providers BUY their programming. Without a market for SD programming masquerading as HD...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    Since the VOOM debacle, its time we realized that as long as we allow providers to repackage SD programming unchanged and sell it as HD, we will continue to get screwed. This is about truth in advertising and we need to demand a change. I am writing my congressional reps, and the FCC, asking...

    OFFICIAL: Dish Network Not Enough New HD Complaint Thread

    Join me in writing your congressional reps and the fcc and demand that in order for a provider to claim HD programming and charge for it, the channel must contain at least 75% true HD content, excluding commercials. As long as they can stretch a program and feed it as HD, they will continue to...

    So they dumped programming I watch, I did the only thing that will make them listen and cut back my service. I will be damned if I am going to pay the same amount for LESS true HD programming. Now, if you really want to do something, join me in writing your congressional representatives and the...
