I don't know, Dishprint has a better ring to me.

Same here. If I lose power or it locks up, then I have to redo it. Otherwise, it seems to stick for me.

Awesome. Thanks for confirming that. I imagine I'll need to get away from the constant stream of Nick Jr. shows from time to time in the back. :)

Just an update: I pulled the trigger. I used the refer a friend code and picked up the HR34 and the HR24 (hopefully that's what they send.) for $215. My first bill should be $40.99, and it goes up to 50.99 for two months, then 65.99 until 2014. I did look at the order, and it says LIFETIME FREE...

Aren't those the Blockbuster/Dish Platinum channels? Maybe you had the promo of other Absolute customers and kept it free for a year?

Sounds like the HMC/HD DVR combo is the way to go. I'm still holding out just a bit to see if Dish releases the Hopper in the next few days. Otherwise, I'm off to DirecTV land. One thing I did find funny, if you calculate the current offer with Choice vs. Choice Xtra, it's actually cheaper over...

A bit offtopic, but a question about those timers. I notice that when I tried to record The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, I'd end up getting 3 or 4 of them daily even if I chose New Only. In the end, I just made a M-F timer from 10-11. How well does Direct's timers work in that regard? Is...

That's sort of what I'm thinking as well. It's a little more up front, but it would cost more in the long run if I wanted to upgrade. One of the uses that I read about on this board is the padding of the timers. Right now, my Dish will cut off a recording at the end of Parks and Rec to record...

I just went to DirecTV's site to price out a potential 2 year contract. It looks like with their deal now, I'd be able to get Choice Xtra for 50.99 for the first 12 months, then 65.99 for the last 12 months. If I use my dad's refer-a-friend code, I could save a bit more too. What really...

I just upgraded from 120 to 120+ and the multi-sports package for Redzone. From Dish's site, I am supposed to get some channels in the 400s and NFL Network, but I also notice that I have ESPN Classic, and I'm not sure I got that before. What channels do you actually receive if you upgrade from...

Did they try turning it off and turning it back on again?

Did a reboot and switch check before coming here. I wonder what happened to 129. I can't even access my guide, though here in Louisiana. Whoops just checked again and my guide is up.

Ugh, I just got an email saying that my service was switched to Top 200....after I went through all of that mess on Feb. 1st to switch it to AT120. Just finished a chat and switched it back, but now they're saying my bill will be $30.99 for 12 months. I have no idea what's going on over there.

ATM...at the moment

So it sounds like calling or not calling doesn't make a difference, and they're swapping over. It's really over this time. It was good while it lasted. :)

I know, I know. Ultimately, I can't honestly say I feel totally ripped off if I'm getting Platinum, Cinemax, Starz, and Encore for free for a year for $41. I am aggravated at the fact that I thought I had called and set it all up when I received the letter for $15 off instead of $10, but he said...

Well, I think I screwed myself. I used the text chat to see about adding Starz and Encore for free. The first time, they said the system was down. The second time, she happily added it. Then I checked my statement, and I was being charged for AT200, HD200 AND Absolute. Argh. I started another...

Hard drive? Hard drives? My Vic-20 had 5 Kb of RAM and 16 Kb of ROM, and we LIKED it, mister. :)

I know how you feel. I have three DirecTivos that I meant to put on eBay a long time ago. Never really did get around to it, and now they're just taking up space. :(

Not sure why you're not seeing it unless it is a regional thing. I just went back to an old saved cart and this is what it looks like for me after 12 months. The $99 is because I added 2 HDDVRs at the time. As for the AAA credit, I wonder if it cancels out other promotions as well. If you do...

You know, I always wondered why we got Comedy Central, but not MTV/VH1/Nick in Absolute (Or any of the Dish America packs). Aren't they all Viacom channels? I just think it's really weird that the only way to get Nick is Top 120 or above.

I received an offer similar to yours, but no free movies. I didn't ask, buy I don't do PPV anyway. $15 credit for a year HD for life HD platinum free for one year America's Top 120 I talked to a very pleasant woman from West Virginia. I asked her if it would be possible to do that. She...

That used to be the price until 6-8 months ago when they dropped it to $29.99. Not sure why your price didn't go down.

Is there a master list of channels/plans for both Dish and DirecTV all in one spreadsheet/app?

And this is infuriating. Why? It's not like HD is a passing fancy for fancy people. Yeah, I know the answer is money. :(
