    Signed up for twc, here is the offer they gave me

    I would go in and ask for the new 8300 model. I had to upgrade after someminor problems with the hard drive after saving so many prgrams. The newer box is much smoother, especially when going from standard to hd channels.

    Offers your getting from various companies (dbs and cable)?

    I signed back up with time warner cable yesterday. They have a "leave satellite to come back to cable" deal which I took advantage of. With it I got the standard cable channels, digital value tier, hd tier, hbo, showtime, cinemax, and starz. Price is locked in at 69.99 for one year. That...

    Why are voOm's Movie Packs are more than Dish/Direct?

    if you're looking for movies, stay away from showtime and tmc. they have the worst movie lineup of all the movie packs. starz would have the best lineup for blockbusters and family movies. the biggest problem with starz on voom is the lack of channels. since you have two encores and two...

    WorldSport HD: Hockey : IIHF World Jr. Championships: Canada vs. Slovakia 8pm ET

    my only complaint about what I saw of this game, was that there was never a scoreboard or a clock on the screen. it made it hard to follow powerplays when you had no idea how long they had to go. other than that, the picture looked good.

    Junior Hockey Championship Schedule On WorldSport

    this should be good. I am a college hockey fan anyways and I just saw Michigan play last weekend. As much as it pains me to say it, they are really good (which is good for the USA, just not for my Buckeyes) This will also fill my hockey fix for awhile. I would love for voom to add college...

    HomeTheatherMagazine: Even more HDTV from VOOM

    there are also more movie channels that they can add to each movie tier. I remember having hbo zone, 5 star max, starz cinema, starz theatre, black starz, sundance, tmcextra, flix, wam, and fox movies only to name a few. they could also do what cable did and add west coast feeds of most of...

    PQ degraded with 7.26

    I think my pq is okay, but I've noticed a moving line from right to left that is mainly noticable on a dark screen. Is this my tv or does anyone else notice this? I only seem to notice it on hd channels, but maybe I don't pay enough attention ususally. wife's playing a video game or I'd check...

    Please, Stop Crying About The Price Increase!!!!

    I am so sick and tired of hearing everyone cry and moan about voom raising their monthly bill $10. Ten whole dollars, roughly $0.33 per day! Compare with my other option, Time Warner Cable Basic Cable $43.50 Add HBO $10.50 Add Max $6.00 Add Sho $6.00 Add Starz...

    Sundance Channel

    sundance is a showtime channel, and for some reason at this time we only have 9 premium channels from each provider (hbo, max, sho, starz). unfortunately showtime is the worst of these groups with two hd showtimes, hd tmc, and standard sho and tmc taking up 5 of the 9 channels. you would...

    Serious Voom Complaint.

    I would have to say thats your fault for not doing your own research. no matter what company cable or sat. I've ever talked to will pretty much tell you what you want to hear to get you to buy. www.voom.com it's there for a reason.

    Show-HD East: 2nd Season: Dead Like Me: Haunted 10pm EST

    Yeah, showtime never seems to be to sure if they're bringing back their series for another season or not. I really like this show and can't wait to see it continue next year. My wife was a big fan of Out of Order, which had some fairly big names, mainly William H Macy and they released the...

    Poll: HGTV and FoodNEt on Voom?

    I think they need to add both. The wife has been very understanding (granted she's in her final semester in college) and she was really hoping for them by december when she graduates. Once these are added, I am happy with our channel selections.

    Hopkins vs De la Hoya?

    Weak ending last night. De La Hoya goes down from a body shot in like the ninth round. Wasn't watching it too close, so there may have been some earlier shots that set it up, but crowd was disappointed in lame ending. Local sports bar showed the fight for free, so I headed up. As usual with...

    If Voom tells you we can add only one more HD channel which would you pick

    Definitely espn2. i had inhd, and was really uninpressed. the only thing i ever watched on there was ufc, which was a couple months old and available at blockbuster anyways. i think this channel is way over-rated.

    Monsters-HD: Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation 11:30am & 7pm EST

    Not that it matters, this is not a good movie.... not at all. Granted I still would have watched it had my voom worked at all this weekend. I am glad they added another movie to the library though. There are so many small indie horror films out there that they could show. I wonder how...

    Voomless for the weekend??

    Strange thing happened today. My box froze up on me while scanning the program guide. So I rebooted, and when I did it will only acknoledge the local channels, and none of the satellite channels. I tried rebooting a couple times but nothing changed, so I called voom. They had me disconnect...

    New HD content on VOOM exclusive channels...Comments

    Friday the 13th-The Final Chapter. Definately one of the best in this classic series. Can't wait to see it in hd. All I have now is video until the box set comes out 10/5. What could be better than Jason vs Corey Feldman???

    "Wasn't that call bull****?"

    Sorry, this isn't really voom related but funny and it happened on voom. I went home for lunch yesterday, and NBCHD had the womens gymnastics team finals on. It was between events 3 and 4, and the camera zoomed out like they were going to commercial, but they didn't. They showed a view from...
