    New XM Channels on DirecTv.

    I've written asking for Music Lab to be returned to us. it was the only good mobile source of Progressive rock, even though it was only 1/3rd prog. You can't use your Sky Fi 2 to rewind on Fine Tuning, and Deep Tracks doesn't play the new prog acts.. so to make a long story short, the two...

Prime TV / Dish TV Now has extensive training programs where the reps go through days of training...

    DirecTV news

    I've thought about this a little bit. I've heard multiple comments from multiple people that Charlie, and by default Dish, lost there way for a year or so during the whole merger debacle. I think the same thing has happened with DirecTV. It seems to me that DirecTV was a good...
