    I Have a Replacement STB Coming Monday

    I believe that's exactly what they are doing. I mean, using variable compression not messing with your head DarrellP. :)

    Thinking about switching?Voom service still sucks!

    A lot. Because, I think, Sean knows that insults are just insults and they reflect more the insulter than the insultee. ;)

    He said Digital Platinum. Anyway, I wish him good luck. :)

    Gave up with VOOM - Say hello to Comcast HDTV

    I was just suggesting that maybe you should carefully read the small print on your agreement with Comcast. ;)

    Gave up with VOOM - Say hello to Comcast HDTV

    The promotion in my area is $25 off of my monthly bill for 16 months. However, Digital Platinum package is $98.95 + $7.25 for HD + $15.45 for DVR. Not including taxes the total is $121.65. With the promotion it is $96.65. How come you could get 3 HD boxes for $49.99?

    Gave up with VOOM - Say hello to Comcast HDTV

    tik, could you give me a pointer where I can find this deal? It is positively not on the Comcast website for the Chicago area. Frankly, I don't believe that this deal exists.

    I Can't seem to ever WIN with Voom

    So, stevesmall, how is this forum squashing you, ha? You've been very productive describing your lack of success with Voom over and over and over, and I doubt that the mods are deleting many of your posts. Are they?

    Thinking about switching?Voom service still sucks!

    You bet. Mostly because many of them don't know any better. How many of them have more than one provider to compare the PQ?

    Thinking about switching?Voom service still sucks!

    zubinh, there is no doubt that Sean has done a tremendous job helping many people with Voom or interested in Voom. What constructive have you done here? Please refresh our memory.

    Thinking about switching?Voom service still sucks!

    I agree that Voom has more problems than other already well-established satellite providers. However, I see it as a "no pain no gain" situation. In other words, I am willing to deal with those additional problems (at least for now) in exchange for the HD experience that Voom is providing and/or...

    Thinking about switching?Voom service still sucks!

    Hmmm, whom should we trust: zubinh: "SD PQ was always outstanding on every channel", or Sean Mota: "Since dish introduce SD LIL channels, their picture degraded to a point where it is unwatchable" "Outstanding" or "unwatchable". zubinh or Sean Mota. Am I the only only who is...

    VOOM sub numbers?

    Thanks voomsetr2, I appreciate your interest in my posts. No, I don't know it all and therefore here's my question about the influence of "bottom line" on our decisions: Would you keep Voom if the installation, equipment, programming and service were for free (free like in $0.00)? If...

    VOOM sub numbers?

    1. So where are those "true" HD afficionados going to? Let me know so I can try their service. (Btw. I already have D* with their full galore of ~5 HDlite channels and Comcast.) 2. I am sorry for you DarrellP but your are dropping Voom mostly because of your bottom line (i.e., unemployment)...

    VOOM sub numbers?

    I bet those three are not HD aficionados but just TV viewers (or they can't live without an overdose of NFL via Sunday Ticket or shopping channels or religious channels). It's true that for a typical TV viewer Voom is not the best option.

    No Grandfathered Status In 2005- for me!

    Even if it is only the capacity, it's still better than what D* or E* can offer in March. ;)

    No Grandfathered Status In 2005- for me!

    I'm not sure that you're correct. On my January bill VaVaVomm package disappeared and instead I pay $39.90 for Voom and 4 x $10 for Cinemax PlusPack, HBO PlusPack, SHOWTIME UNLIMITED PlusPack, and STARZ! PlusPack. The total for programming is still $79.90.

    voom need to add religious channels

    Then Voom should also add Bridges TV and Al-Jazeera. Both belong to the category of "better ones".

    My Voom Anniversary

    Congratulations subdude212 on your anniversary! I have to wait about 2 months for mine. I admit I was not brave enough to jump in when it started, but I was watching you guys from the sidelines. :)

    Voom- please fix the PQ issues on CNN, TWC, MTV, VH1, and others

    And for a few weeks it was actually fixed. Now it is getting worse again. :no

    Disgruntled VOOM Employee

    Yes, we are O.T., so what? :D Merriam-Webster dictionary (at http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=gruntled&x=13&y=19) says what I quoted. :)

    How 'bout Voom as sponsor?

    I have a better idea about reality shows and advertising. Voom should hire ram1220 and zubinh and let them run a show of disgruntled losers trying to explain what Voom is about. It would be hilarious.

    Disgruntled VOOM Employee

    Very true and happens all the time because this job doesn't require much training or knowledge.
