    NBC is not authorizing VOOM to turn on Olympic Channels outside O&O Tv Station

    A few days ago I sent the following email to this address: nbcolympicsfeedback@nbcuni.com. It bounced back to me so I forwarded the bounce to webmaster@nbc.com. I also copied Voom, the FCC, and the USOC. --- Date: Sat, 14 Aug 2004 20:14:02 -0700 (PDT) Subject: I can't watch the...

    SD Quality on Bravo - neat

    I always thought Fuse looked pretty good for an SD channel. Maybe they are boosting the quality on the channels they own. How does IFC look? :D

    DivineHD: Should it be "a la carte"?

    I don't really want to pay for any of the Cinema 10 channels and it's replacing one of those so I'm pretty much in the same boat as before. Don't want to watch it, don't want to pay for it, but I feel that I'm getting enough value out of the other channels for the price I am paying. Once they...

    Rave-HD: Soundstage Presents: Tori Amos 3pm & 6pm EST

    Good to hear a new one's on its way. I just recently found out that I know someone who's a sound engineer for HD Ready, working on Soundstage. I asked him when they're going to get more quality concerts to show on RAVE. He said that was up to his boss. I suggested Van Halen since they're...

    Finding Nemo on Starz-HD West at 12AM Tonight!

    Strange. The promo for Nemo looked pretty good, if I recall. I'd imagine it's relatively easy to get a good quality HD transfer from a computer animated film. The source material is probably a super high res render to begin with. I don't recall what channel it was on, but Ice Age looked...

    WOW!! Tears of the Sun!! on StarzHD

    Yeah I agree that film "should" look better than digital, but I just haven't seen much recent evidense of it. I guess it's partly due to the fact that I live in the Chicago 'burbs and these movies just simply get worn out. Although they must get worn out in a day since I often see movies...

    WOW!! Tears of the Sun!! on StarzHD

    Yeah ever since getting DVD and DD5.1 at home I've never been all too impressed with theaters any more. I mainly only go there for the "experience" of seeing a blockbuster movie with a huge crowd of people who are all seeing it for the first time. It helps when it's a good crowd. I must say...

    How important is HGTV?

    Monster House rocks. I still want the kitchen from the very first episode. Between Discovery and TLC we don't really need HGTV but yeah it does have some cool shows and it's nice to have the options when we start to get bored with a certain show. I tried watching Ultra Space a few times on...

    How important is HGTV?

    My wife and I used to watch several shows on HGTV but they got old and we got tired of them. We probably wouldn't mind if VOOM got the channel. It seems the shows were always more fun to watch this time of year when we're trying to do some home improvement ourselves. But we wouldn't cry about...
