    Has anyone found out why they charge sales tax?

    I'm in California. I currently have Dish Network. And there is no tax on my bills. But I ordered Voom and there will be tax. It's bizarre. I think it has something to do with Voom being owned by the cable company, Cablevision.

    Voom business going TOO well?

    Both Voom and their Installers are saying business is going incredibly well. TOO well in fact. They say the reason why it takes so long to get an installation date is because the supply (hardware) can't keep up with the demand. I'm surprised by this in a few ways. First of all, no one I...

    Only SD has black border all the way around

    What????????? There will be black bars on the SD Channels??? I get installed June 10, and let me tell you, if that's what I'm gonna get, they may as well put the equipment back in their box.
