    Versus coming soon???

    so... who said anything about OLN or "Outdoor Life Network"? the on demand->All Free->Sports listing says 'Versus'. right now there are 3 categories under Versus, 'Hunters', 'Anglers' and 'Re-Play'. guess it would be a good sign if they add 'NHL'?

    Versus coming soon???

    I've noticed that there are a couple of programs on the 'Free->Sports->Versus' on demand listings in the past couple of days... might this be an indication that we will be getting the Versus channel in time for the NHL season?

    Most Likely Leaving Dish... For now, Should I?

    i agree that seems to be the logical choice at this point... you will have subsidized cable rates for 1 year, which should be just about enough time for the current E* insanity to have shaken out -- the marketing geniuses that came up with this 'deal' will have all been replaced by then, terms...

    2 Days & a wake-up - is evvvvvverybody happy?

    i would agree that most subs have no idea about the upcoming changes -- especially not if they rely on dishnetwork.com for info... click on the equipment upgrades link and you get a choice to lease the 811, 510, 301, 522, or purchase the 942. no mention at all of the 211/611.

    1/11 Retailer Chat Recap

    so if the goal is to increase their avg revenue per sub, then losing the "v.o." subs would actually be a good thing for them... however, I doubt that many HD subs fit into this profile... and these are the people most likely to be disgruntled by the latest scheme.

    NHL Center Ice Now Available

    the letter i got from E* says "To say thank you to the NHL's loyal fans, the League is taking $30 off the full season price of NHL CENTER ICE"... and goes on to quote the $129 price... which to me seems to imply that they are taking $30 off what the price was in previous seasons. but that...

    Can anyone answer this?? Dish CSRs can't

    the footnote says 'Receive one Regional Sports Network only', the key word here being Regional. From what I understand, this includes Fox, NESN, MSG, Sunshine, Empire and Comcast. you receive all of the ESPN channels as they are considered 'national'. In my case, I receive FSSW. I do not get...
