    I still don't get the new HD package pricing?

    If you have an 811(921 or 942) the HDPak will remain $9.99, right? Ok, but if you upgrade to the 211 then the price is $14.99? So if you have an 811 and subscribe to VOOM, you are paying the same price as you would if you had a 211 and got the additional MPEG4 channels? That doesn't seem fair.

    What are some drinking games for tonight?

    I'm afraid that virtually any catchphrase we use will land a ton of us in Alchoholics Anonymous.

    Lifetime and Lifetime Movie Network off Dish due to contract dispute

    Prepare yourself for shocking news: Dish is in a contract dispute with a channel! Lifetime Movie Network is off the air and in it's place WE is simulcasted. I don't get that since both are on at120.

    Why won't Dish make an Dish1000LNB upgrade for SD121

    I think it's clear that anybody with 121 Superdish can get the 129 signal just by attaching another DP single. Why won't Dish make a replacement for that. I realize that the Superdish LNB isn't so easy to take off and put back on, but it's easier than installing a 2nd dish.

    Any chance of Dish getting Oln's HD feed?

    Do you think there is any chance of Dish(or DirecTV) getting the OLN NHL games in HD that will be on InHD? You might think that's crazy, but Comcast is paying $66 million/year for these NHL rights that ESPN said it couldn't make a profit at $60 million/year and ESPN is in far more homes...

    Is ESPN-2HD still worth it?

    This might sound like a dumb question, but now that ESPN has lost the NHL is ESPN-2HD still worth it? Will there still be enough live events to even fill it? I doubt it.

    Any other AT120 customers getting bloomberg?

    I subscribe to AT120, but seem to be getting Bloomberg today. I'm not getting any other AT180 stations, just Bloomberg. Could this be the replacement for CNNfn? I guess it was cheaper and easier to move Bloomberg to AT120 than it was to add CNNInternational which probably has tough licensing...

    :down Has anybody else heard the news? Comcast is trying to buy Disney. I think all of us know what that's all about. Comcast is going to use Disney like Time Warner Cable uses CNN hang Dish and DirecTV over. We thought ESPN negotiations were tough before? This stuff has to be...

    :( Did anybody else see the PQ problems on the NBA LP stations last night(Wed night)?? There were flashing thin vertical white lines(kind of like prison bars) on the right side of the picture on most of the games from 9-10:30. Sometime the whole picture flashed, however the bars were only on...

    NBA League Pass 2nd half?

    Does anybody remember if Dish offered a 2nd half of the season subscription to NBA League Pass last year? I'm not sure if it's Dish that controls that stuff or just the NBA. Yeah I know, I should've ordered the full season when it was $159, but I'm not really a big NBA fan, just an Earl...
