    DIRECTV Rumor Alert

    Thanks Scott. I do remember you told us first :) I am seeing Dec 31st dates being mentioned elsewhere in this thread. Has it been confirmed Dec 31st is indeed the end date for the Disney/Directv contract? Finally Scott, would you know why I can't post replies using Chrome? I click on the reply...

    DIRECTV Rumor Alert

    Thanks Scott, I believe you meant to say Directv reached an agreement with Disney, as Fusion is not one of the ESPN channels?

    Are you all happy?

    grantsa4, I believe I can give you a very good perspective on some options for you, as I have had Comcast, Dish and I have been with Directv since 2011. I used to live in a condo with no Line of Sight so, at first, Comcast was my only option. I wasn't too happy and in late 2003, the condo...

    SEC Network Launches August 14 Channel 611

    For those of you recording, it's been really really cool the opening so far. It shows the advantage of having ESPN resources behind it. And I'm not even a SEC Alumni! :-)

    SEC Network Launches August 14 Channel 611

    Has there been any games shown on FCS recently? I don't recall seeing anything at that channell last football season, or even when I'm brownsing the 600 channels, it's always showing something like "to be announced".

    Team Summit - Keynote Address - 2PM ET

    I"m not worth 1/100million of what Carlie is. But I beg to disagree. I believe middle-class couples will still have at least 2: The main big screen in the living rooms and the one in the bedroom. I do agree that the guest room TVs, kids Tvs, etc, are going the way of the dodo. But there's always...

    No Uplink Reports...

    Scott, we can all wait for an uplink. Glad to hear you and your family are safe. The snowstorm, thankfully. wasn't as bad by me as Irene was - I never lost power, unlike the almost 48hrs without power after Irene. For those of you not in the areas of the country typically hit by snows, the main...

    NFL Sundays - Dish Network regional sports

    Let me try to give you a more definitive answer re pro sports overall and multi-sports package. You will NOT get any live pro sport on any of the regional sport networks that are part of the multi-sports package, outside of the pro sports available in your area - your signature says Detriot, Mi...

    I found out today something that I never knew: That Cablevision, a provider in tri-state NYC metro area, already carries BBC World News: BBC AMERICA LAUNCHES ON CABLEVISION THIS WEEK | Press Releases | BBC America Press "Cablevision Systems Corp. (NYSE: CVC) today announced the addition of BBC...

    DISH Network Retailer Chat Recap - August 18th, 2011

    2 quick comments: 1- If your stated goal to Wall Street is to increase revenue per subscriber, by dropping sports channels you are dropping an audience that's willing to spend more $$$ to watch their sports. 2- More Music... Interesting, do they plan to bring back Fuse?

    DISH Loses 135,00 Subs in Second Quarter

    Affluent customers = premium channels + sports + HD. Premium Channels, Dish is in ok shape. Sports, not so much.... HD - mixed bag, better than Directv on some tier 1/tier 2 HDs like AMC, BBCA, GSN but, on the other hand, missing most Disney HD channels - Also, NYC metro is the place with the...

    Should i go E or comcast?

    For TV service, I'd say compare the lineups from Comcast and Dish, then make your choice. If you like american sports, chances are you will be better off with Comcast than with Dish, because Dish will at best carry your Local RSN in HD for games only, whereas Comcast will probably carry it/them...

    New Receiver DISH 311K

    I'm curious why Dish decided to go EA MPEG4 but WA MPEG2, I mean, what was the business reason behind it. I'm pretty sure they have had/will have to replace quite a few receivers on the EA.

    My HOA is forcing me to say goodbye to DISH

    As a president of a board, I think I may add color to the discussion here and share my own experience. As soon as I moved to my condo, I tried to get both Directv and Dish and then, unfortunately, I realized that my balcony face the opposite direction, so I couldn't get either and was forced to...

    Goodbye Charlie... (OFFICIAL I am Leaving DISH Thread)

    Information that was previously missing from post below: My 2 HD DVR boxes are HR24 boxes, and I am quite happy with both of them, especially with the fact that I can watch whatever I recorded on them on both of my TVs.

    Goodbye Charlie... (OFFICIAL I am Leaving DISH Thread)

    Like I said on my Goodbye post: "As much as I liked Dish Network DVR technology, by far the best I have used, and I liked the fact that I could easily turn my Vip 211k box into a single-tuner DVR..." Dish equipment is better indeed. But I think the Directv DVR boxes that I got(forgot which...

    Goodbye Charlie... (OFFICIAL I am Leaving DISH Thread)

    When I called to cancel Dish today, I was asked why. I clearly said: Lack of NY RSNs, Gol Tv and ESPNU in HD. Once I said lack of NY RSNs, they didn't even insisted in keeping me.
