    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    This forum is like the duracell batteries. The bunny is still going. The answer will be with FIOS TV. FIOS TV will challenge both satellite/cable companies and will deliver better programming and better quality. It is only a matter of when it is going to get to my neighborhood. Until...

    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    E_NYCE, welcome to the board. But I guess it is a little too late for those anti-voomers to realize the cult they had created :)

    We Really Had It Great With Voom!!

    I still see that you guys hang out here even after the VOOM DBS downfall. Great testimony how great we had it. VOOM DBS with all its fault was great because they came to the forum and listened. How many times customers came here and discussed ideas that they would have liked to see and soon...

    Voom Pitches HD Nets

    CV runs their operation very strangely... Let's forget about the VOOM channels for a minute and let me know who was the smart person who decided to offer INHD 1 on their system but forgot to contract INHD 2. INHD 1 has become a sport channel and INHD 2 is more of a variety channel. You...

    Quality of VOOM on Dish Network

    RSAvenell, Welcome to the site. I do not know what to say to you but it seems like the VoOM channnels have better quality now than before. The equator HD still has mosquito noise which has nothing to do with the bandwith of the channel but with the production of those programs. If you can...

    Becoming Jaded With Half/voom

    I think we are only seeing the flaws now because they have dropped the ball in term of new content. If we were getting the same amount of content per month (as before) everything will be ok with or without a DVR. It smells to me like James is behind this latest fiasco of the VOOM content...

    Last VOOM Statement

    Got mine today as well. Final bill was $21.86. I was leasing two receivers and they are mine to keep. Not bad two OTA receivers for free!

    Last VOOM Statement

    I do not think it was going to be free service but a prorated bill until the service went off.

    DISH to carry all 21 in 2006

    I have seen that the second dish at 61.5 installation has been waved for some. I have never used the dish club but some have and it has been legit. The difference between E* and D*? E* has the Voom channels and TNT HD and D* has Universal HD. Aside from this and the fact that I see better...

    VOOM-21 to have long life!

    Voom Switch - E* / D* Comparison

    I have both as well and I agree about the PQ. E* does a better job on the HD channels (which is what I care about). D* is not too far but E* wins it.
