    what I don't get

    when was Voom started? ...all I can tell is their marketing completely sucked. I found out about it from a friend and had never heard of it until then. It wasn't until the very end after it was pretty much over that Voom seemed to start actually marketing the product and attracting...

    what I don't get

    which probably wasn't the best idea...I am wondering who would even bother picking the channels up TW for example can't even support the 4 or 5 HD channels they have now, much less 21 new ones

    what I don't get

    ...is why Dolan pushed to even keep the thing open when it was a 15-0 that shut it down Was he hoping someone would step up to the plate and offer funding? Was he thinking about funding it? Is there still some plan? Was it all just a cruel joke on us? I cancelled my digital cable to...

    Just got a call from Voom in which I was told Voom won't end at the end of the month.

    my installer just now called to confirm an install they said they got the equipment in so they could be out here tomorrow to do it instead of monday... I said that is fine...I guess I will see what happens when he gets here and tries to activate it.

    Poll: What Screen Size do Voom customers prefer?

    110" projector screen, only way to fly for HD content. :)

    Rumor: VOOM/Echostar Deal?

    I would hate to have to use E*, however, it would be better than going with D*, they won't ever get my business. I will go back to cable before I go with D*, I don't care what they do/have.

    is it safe to sign up voom now or should I wait until 4/1?

    I have been lurking for a long time and even I finally pulled the trigger today. You don't have much to lose with a $1 install special. The sooner you order the sooner you can get installed. They gave me a date way too far out though, I am supposed to call tomorrow to see if I can get any...

    VooM will Live On

    I know a few people that were ready to sign up but have decided to wait a bit. My reasons for waiting were mainly because of pricing and not getting any HD locals in my location. They happen to get HD locals where they are and are not signing up for other reasons. Does VOOM ever monitor...

    VooM will Live On

    please let dish buy VOOM, with all the negative comments I see about VOOM as a company and their current pricing structure and policies it is very difficult for me to sign up...in addition, there is no possible way I will ever sign up with D*...I will live with cable and their HD before I do...

    Voom Outrage

    You don't grow your customer base by raking them over the coals. I fear VOOM is going to learn this the hard way.

    VOom screwing me after I cancelled. Beware!!

    man guys...this kind of stuff really worries me I have been considering VOOM for a while, however, I have put my decision on hold because of their poor pricing structure and policy (competition wise). I do however still want to get it and I check the forum regularly to read about the...

    Going back to D* ( not a rant just an explanation)

    I hear ya... I just can't see $50 per room with a 1 year commitment as a "good deal". I need 2-3 rooms and the 1 year is the killer there. A friend of mine mentioned the free install/no commitment special to me like on the last day...I was bummed I missed it. If VOOM offered something...

    Going back to D* ( not a rant just an explanation)

    price... I am peppered monthly with specials from cable companies and the 2 other big sat providers then I look at what VOOM is doing/offering and there is no contest, I would be a fool to sign up for VOOM with the other offers out there sad part is...I am trying hard to convince myself...

    Going back to D* ( not a rant just an explanation)

    VOOM just isn't competitive price wise...it is the one reason I haven't signed up for it yet. I would never move to D* though. I would consider E* if they had more HD content, and even though I would never give D* one cent, you have to admit at least their pricing is competitive with the...

    voom's problem

    Well one of the reasons I want to switch is the PQ isn't the greatest. I suppose I should clarify, the PQ is fine on my regular TV. When I start watching my 110" projection though it just isn't good enough unless it is HD. The HD channel PQ on the big screen is great. They do have a...

    voom's problem

    Ok, as badly as I want to switch to VOOM, their pricing is just not in line with other services. I was kind of waiting until a special came along so I could make the move from Time Warner but this new special just isn't good enough. $50 install, 9.50/month rental and for each additional...
