    Voom should give all subscribers a gift!

    I am a VaVaVoomer so I get all channels except Playboy. I think Voom should open all channels to all subs as a way of saying thank you to all their loyal subscribers. Just a thought. Barry

    I say no more new HD channels for now!

    1080iBeVuMin, I would also subscribe to a all high quality HD service, but it seems there are not enough of us to support a service at this time. Why can't they have both a complete SD lineup that will compete with cable, D* and E*(with better PQ) as well as a HD package. Maybe with tier...
