Just talked to a CSR and I too have a credit for $450. Voom you were the best!

Hey panman are you a prospector?

Close enough... I'm calling Dish right now.

I'll probably get cable. Damn, that statement sucks.

If the OTA isnt functional.....HULK SMASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have new appreciation for Jackie Chan. The Dude is amazing!

I second, third, and forth this. The Red Sox are part of the culture. It would be huge if people could thumb their nose at Comcast. I could be wrong but I think only Comcast broadcast the Red Sox in HD. Make it so Voom...pretty please, with suger on top. -Chris

Does anyone remember when the free programing ended for early adopters? I want to calculate my monthly cost. Was it March '04?

As one that bought the equipiment I sure hope this thing gives me permanent OTA. If not I'll feel really screwed. You lease guys are smarter than I. -Chris

$199 to hook up a few wires and run a wizard?!?!? Wow, this is robbery in my opinion. I'll stay with Voom only because I'm invested. Vooms business practices should be reviewed if they want to be profitable.

Nice even handed article. Voom should link to this on their website.

I dissagree. They advertise "cable favorites" which they fall short of by a few key channels. i can live without most of them but some are important...especially the local cable channels.

I agree. They also shouldn't price it out of the stratosphere. Honestly if they offer maybe 3-4 months free programming with free install add on a two year commitment to protect themselves and I think you have a winning promotion. Voom HAS to get market-share from d* and E*. They MUST get...

Ok...let me get this strait. Cable and Satellite make more money AND the consumer gets what he/she wants or chooses. The bad part is short term it will cost the consumer more money until competion between the channels begin which should lower pricing eventually. Basically its like getting a...

I saw Showtime boxing use "blurry bars" for 4:3 material that can't be streched. Although not ideal its much better than black bars. Hopefully this catches on. -Chris

Zeity, I know you said your not posting in this thread any longer but I hope your still reading...ThanK you! Not only for saving me from my own fantasies but for providing me with the funnest read I've had in quite awile. I was losing hope in the written word and you sir have restored that hope...

Awesome!!! Great job Scott. -Chris

Zeity...You don't mind if I call you Zeity do you? Honestly I don't care cause I'm 6'4" and 300lbs so I'll call you Zeity if I want to. Anyway your so correct about the microstutter, a myth, mirage, a talltale told by toads. Your also F'n hillarious and i havn't read anything this good in a...

Voom is my sole provider. $39.90 including Showtime is cheap if you ask me. My local Cable provider would charge me double for a few more SD channels and far far fewer HD channels. Voom is a bargain. -Chris

Great!!!! Now I don't have to look like such a dork. Goodbye virginity!!!!

I was in my Local Sears last night and Voom was on almost every HD set(Except 2 that were running DVDs) and about half their SD sets. When I was there 4 months ago it was on 1 Hd Set and nobody had much info. I'd say the Sears in Springfield Mass(Eastfield Mall) is doing its part. Kudos to them...

30" CRT...Cut me some slack, I'm poor.

Sean, Satelliteguys and Voom are both lucky to have you on their side. All one needs to do to know how much you are appreciated is to read the thread when you were about to leave. Luckily Voom fixed their PQ and we are all better off. Good decision Scott...You do a fine job also. -Chris

I woke up this morning, flipped on the TV via my newly acquired Harmony 659 (I love this remote) and surfed through the channels hoping for a pleasant surprise...and there it was. (Choir singing Hallelujah in the backround) ESPN!!!!!! Damn...I didn't realize how much I missed this channel. I...

The Food Channel rocks...Except for Emirel. He is so overexposed...BAM! has so jumped the shark. As far as whats on the channel? "Good Eats" is a very entertaining and infomative show...Alton Brown is the king. "Olivers Kitchen" is very good. Mario Vitali is great, and so are a host of other...
