    2 New Channels added

    I'll be in an excited state if voom can resolve the CBA dispute for the NHL ... or anyone for that matter. No, that is great for Voom and Voomers. Plus it will provide me with one more channel to kick D* in the a$$ about not having once SpaceWay is live. Congrats Voomers ... the more the merrier.

    voom has a new promotion

    The $64,000 Question ... rather the $540 one. The offer is tempting ... D* HD is lame since the NFL ST stopped. But is is worth the $540, since I am stuck on it for 6 months. D* will get much better come SpaceWay, but until then .... hummmmmmm

    End OF The VOOM Forum?

    ^^^^^^^^^ VOOM TROLL :p Have fun with Comcrap! Saetllite is the ONLY WAY and D* is still the best at it! ;)

    The End of VOOM?

    Good! Now SpaceWay will get a kick in the butt! However it looks like E* will be the short term leader. :(

    Cablevision Board To Debate Voom Fate

    Having been a subscriber to all three services (currently D*, 7 years) my two cents is only if I don't have to pay for it. Voom GAVE ME their service for 2 month free and I cancelled because it was so bad. I don't know if things have changed at all recently. The only way I see Voom ever...

    VOOM Satellite Service to Dramatically Increase to Over 70 HD channels by March 2005

    That is great news for Voom and Voomers! I (like others) would like to know where they plan to crap and additional 30 channels from in 4 months but I am sure just like Senator Kerry ... they have a plan. LOL! I had to get that in. This would be huge for the entire HD spectrum including Dish...

    Amendment #4 To Form 10: Rainbow Media Enterprises (all related articles posted here)

    Oh he is correct. I remember my 3 weeks with Voom. I cancelled with 7 free weeks of service remaining. That is opinion. On the factual side no companies stockholders will stand for this type of waste. If cablevision will not drop or spin Voom, the stockholders will drop or spin cablevision.

    DELL is advertising VOOM!

    Good to hear! D* needs all the competition it can get in the HD market.

    **Rumor:** Dish Network and Voom combined?

    This would be a great move for both companies. As a D* sub I am in favor of anything that will keep D* on their toes. I just hope if it is a true rumor that the consumers are not forgotten, one receiver, one bill, etc. Integration should not be an issue given the satellite location.

    I'm sorry Mr. Dvlos that is incorrect, you did not phrase your answer in the form of a question. :p

    I'm Back after 2 weeks

    Oh yeah HDNet Movies ... this one is right up there with MOOV. In about 6 months of use with the HD pak on D* I have watched "The Serpent And The Rainbow" on HDNet Movies ... killer I mean kill me channel.

    I'm Back after 2 weeks

    his story falls under propaganda ... not marketing :D On the flip side of the coin I waited more than 6 weeks for my Voom de-installation and have been happily watching D* since BUT I SURE DO MISS STARZHD!!!!!! D* currently cannot match the number of HD programs offered by Voom, so it is a...

    Voom may never have a PVR

    They can have my TiVo when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers. Either way, this initative will never pass so there is nothing to worry about. John McCain will whoop Hatch's ass til he cries out like a B*&^h with a skinned knee!

    Who is going to Win the HD War?

    Agreed. I think these all factor in an an even 33% each based upon the differences in what consumers want and need. I see a Moxi Unit in D*'s future! :D

    Directv to offer more HD

    Well In all honesty it is not too big of deal for 2005, in 2006 however, it will be a VERY BIG DEAL. Many people even in metro areas are unable to receive all their DTV signals due to obstructions. Since it is digital (like satellite) it does require a direct line of sight. In 2006 a very large...

    Should Voom get rid of or replace the following channels?

    You forgot the "I don't need any of these channels" option in your poll. One of the reasons I left ... too much HD I'll NEVER watch.

    Does Voom have the Best HD PQ?

    I have had all three and even trained with E* (perhaps that is why I don't like them) and DirecTV has superior PQ across HD, SD and LIL. That is why I am still with them after 7 years now. Well that the the almighty NFL Sunday Ticket. I do have a sneaking feeling that once Voom rolls out WM9...

    Dumping Voom...

    That just make you unlucky! I don't live in an NBC O&O area either ... yet my affiliate gave me the waiver already. Faxed it to my office :D ... The only thing that stinks is this makes it worse for getting more NEW HD programming.

    Dumping Voom...

    I would like to go this route but 200/mo for TV? Hard time justifying it to the wife ... you do have the best though I'll give you that! I said about 3 months ago this is the only way to have the best of both worlds.

    Dumping Voom...

    LMAO, glad to see I made the right decision! Cancelling Voom was the best thing I have done for my HDTV ... and yes I was getting it for free too! You would think as pissed off as EVERYONE is about the PQ, they would quit adding channels until they get the problems fixed. I am sure I'll...

    Component Cables Supplied by Voom

    I missed this before my last post ... correct you are drako! I guess as long as we know that is really all that matters.:rolleyes: For the record: DIGITAL SIGNALS ARE NOT SUBJECT TO RF NOISE AND OTHER INTERFERENCE. ANALOG SIGNALS ARE AND YOU WILL SEE A SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT WITH ANALOG...

    Component Cables Supplied by Voom

    Monster cables ARE better than any piece of junk that comes with any component, be it a VCR or HD DVD player. For digital and optical they are worthless, for analog, like a component video signal, the shielding alone allows for a cleaner signal. I have been using monster cables for all my...

    I'm Out !!!

    Damn that's a rough break. They do have billing problems, I de-installed my own equipment more than a month ago and they have they to come out here and pick it up or given me my service credits on my statement. Voom will works out the kinks eventually, hopefully they don't lose too many...
