    SA 8300 HD DVR PQ help

    I recently upgraded to the SA 8300 HD DVR through Brighthouse. All of the channels through BH in my area are now digital. I had the SA 3100 HD and the PQ was great. So far, I'm completely disappointed with the picture quality of the 8300. Since the upgrade, the local channels look blurry, or...

    NFL Sunday Ticket 2006 Season($19.00/MVP Easy Pay)

    Does this mean that auto. renewals will be given the price of $209 when they start to bill for this? I noticed in D* email that the payments were in increments of 5 instead of 4 in previous years to make the rate look similar to last year. Nice marketing ploy!!! Also, I've heard different...

    NFL Sunday Ticket 2006 Season($19.00/MVP Easy Pay)

    What about automatic renewal? It clearly states this on the website that prior subs are automatically renewed at the lowest rate. So, IMO if you had it last year or subsequent years leading up to this season you should qualify for the lowest price. Anyone have info on this?? My auto. renewal...

    Does anyone know what this base package (9.99) consist of? I see it under their International services, yet there is no mention of what it is.

    Why do D* Customers pay for TNT-HD?

    I guess some of you are so desperate for TNT HD you'd pay anything. I was just looking to see why one provider charged and another one didn't. I wasn't sure if standard channels, like TNT would be a channel you could legally charge consumers for. Refer to a previous post above about the NFL...

    Why do D* Customers pay for TNT-HD?

    I realize the greed side of it. Is this a channel they can charge for? They don't charge for locals in HD why TNT. Why would a cable company give it away for free instead of adding it to there HD pack?

    Why do D* Customers pay for TNT-HD?

    Can anyone answer this question? For example, I have Brighthouse cable and I receive my locals(HD) in addition to TNT HD at no extra cost. Why did D* add this channel to there HD pack? So, in order for D* customers to get TNT HD you have to order there HD sub for $10.99, soon to be $9.99...

    2 New HD Channels?

    I agree with Universal HD. My second guess would be ESPN 2. I really do not see any other channels being offered except those. Whatever the two new additions are they will probably be included in the HD pack, possibly with a price increase from $6 per month.

    Any chance D* will pick up OLN HD? Possibly bad news for NHL fans...

    IMO, the cost of the NHL Center Ice this year should be free. Yes, I know what you're thinking. However, the NHL needs fan support not vice versa. Why not offer the package this year for free to attract fans back, or anyone who currently has a subscription to a sports package (Sunday...

    Get out your wallet. ST in HD now $318.00

    I see both of your points to this. It's easy, some people don't care and will pay, some care, however, they will still pay for the HD tier. Lastly, some do care and won't pay regardless of the amount ($99) b/c of the principle that is involved. I look at it this way. Since D* cannot...
