    Might Leave Dish Any Hope

    Showtime Anytime

    A few weeks ago I realized that Californication has restarted and I missed the first 3 episodes. I signed up for Showtime figuring I'd catch up on Showtime Anytime then found out that it's not available to Dish Customers. I called customer service and asked to cancel Showtime (hour later) and...

    Backup drive or receiver drive

    Where is the best place to store your shows? Since either drive can fail I wondered if one way would be more reliable. Thanks.

    Any Way to Salvage Programming from Dying Receiver

    Yeah I put a big box fan on it but no can do. It's only lasting 10 minutes now before it begins rebooting. When you say clone a hard drive if I clone the drive thats in there and pop it into a new 722 on the way that will work?

    Finally pulled the trigger on HD for life....

    Why sign up for two more years? Am I not reading this correctly where it says no required to enter into 24 month agreement?? The existing customers can also enjoy the offer. Customers subscribing to the $10/mo. “HD Platinum” package on or before June 3, 2010, will be automatically graduated...

    Great Experience with DN

    My 1000.4 install was flawless as well although I did have to sign up for the Maintenance plan and pay $15. The installer was smart and knocked the job out quickly.

    More HD to move from 61.5 to 72.7?

    Kenny $95 is if you don't get the maintenance plan. If you get the $6 maintenance plan it's a $15 upgrade. I still think it's crazy we should have to pay anything to get channels your paying for.

    What Package For All HD

    Thanks. I know the premiums are out there. I'm an absolute customer that is ready to step up. I've had Direct for 2 years and I need to bad one of the services. Would stay dish absolute but I'm not getting MTV, FOX, BBCA etc.. I don't watch SD at all. The HD platinum is free isn't it?
