    V00M's fate

    I would have to say the sale of Rainbow1 was down fall for Voom. If Mr Dolan didn't let his son sale the satellite to E* he could have raised the funds to buy Voom with some help from his friends. I too can't understand why he didn't keep a close eye on his son.

    Just got a call from Voom in which I was told Voom won't end at the end of the month.

    How long would it take Voom to swap there old dishes for the new Rainbow2 dishes? I don't think it's going to happen but just what do they CSR mean when they say Transitional Period? Or is this just something they need to tell all of us Subs?

    May 1st where will you be? Dish, Cable or DirecTV?

    I have Service Electric Cable to fall back on after May 1st but they only offer nine HD channels. They will be adding four or five more HD channels by the end of the year. It will be a sad day in my home when Voom shuts down.

    I say no more new HD channels for now!

    I would agree if they removed some SD channels like SDTNT,SDESPN and reallocate the bandwidth across the board it would increase over all PQ. From what i have read the new encoders are really meant to be used with MPEG4.

    Poll: What Screen Size do Voom customers prefer?

    IF they made a widescreen Sony CRT XBR larger then 34" i would run out and buy it today. As far as Vooms PQ compared to DVD or DirecTV's HD i wouldn't say it's definitely better or even a big upgrade. Some of my SuperBit DVD's look as good if not better then Voom's PQ.

    I say no more new HD channels for now!

    Ok so they have the capacity for 15-20 more SD channels with out any viewable changes to the eye. I still would like to see the same PQ that Voom had be for the new encoders. You can't tell me that the PQ is as good as it once was.

    I say no more new HD channels for now!

    I say don't add any new channels untill Voom can restore it's PQ. My cable HD is head and shoulders better then what Voom is giving us sub. I would not have said that about Vooms PQ befor the new encoding went on line. Just about every channel has artifacting with this new encoder. My PQ was way...

    SONY and VOOM

    I am telling you he can receive Comcast HD. My friend doesn't like sports all that much so i know that he wouldn't subscribe to Comcast. We have the same Cable Company and comcast hd isn't part of our programming it's SDTV were we live. He also is picking up some PPV INHD channel all with OTA...

    SONY and VOOM

    Charper1 your right about Sony they don't make STBs for D*anymore. If you want to buy one lets say the Sony300 STB for D* you would have to buy it from E-BAY.

    SONY and VOOM

    I hope Vooms Motorola DVR STB is better then the ones that we all have now? Because i don't want to go out and buy a new HDTV just because they have better OTA tuners then what our Voom Motorola STBs have in them.

    SONY and VOOM

    I for one would love to have Sony make Vooms STB. My friend has the Sony XBR960 widescreen HDTV with a built in HDtuner and can receive far more OTA local channels then i can. He has the same in door antenna that i have the TERK TV5. We live less then one half mile from each other. He can...

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    The DiscoveryHD channel just doesn't look as good as it did in the past to me. I have seen the Blue Angels shows two or three times on DiscoveryHD. This show just didn't have the crispness that they have had in the past. Vooms PQ was so much better befor the new Harmonic Encoders went on line...

    Talk I had with a csr

    Nayl i have VaVaVoom and have been receiving all of the new channels. But for the subs that don't have VaVaVoom getting two free month to look at the new channels is a good thing.

    PQ is very thin now

    Walter L. your right about Voom their PQ didn't start off great. It wasn't at the level it was a month ago when they first started. When i first got Voom i didn't like the PQ at all but as time went on they got better.

    Best PQ you have ever seen?

    On Voom i would say the best PQ is HDNews and RaveHD. Local Channels for me would be ABC,PBS and Fox. CBS and NBC aren't HD were i live but in time they will be HD. When i had DirecTV the best PQ was HDNet and HD Discovery Channel. I haven't seen Cband HD or the DishNetwork HD so i can't say...
