    Did you get a free Roku offer?

    I have been with Dish less than a year and am still under contract so I honestly didn't expect much at all. I got a $20 one time credit with Showtime, Cinemax, and Encore for 3 months, plus those two On Demand movie certs they had previously sent via email. Given my contract situation I think...

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    My movies were always going back to Sacramento. Like someone else mentioned I often got a mailing notice before I got the return notice, so I usually could have a movie in my hands about every 4 days. Now my movies are suddenly going back to San Jose, which is three times farther away. Turn...
