    Voom on Dish isn't Voom

    can't wait to get hd lite, pay a 250 "privilege" fee to get a dvr,have at least 2 dishes on my house, pay lots to get installed, and suffer with poor PQ, and very little HD...And, to top it off, pay over 100 per month to get it all... Then, be stuck with obsolete equipment in a few months when...

    May 1st where will you be? Dish, Cable or DirecTV?

    Pretty much my thinking too; plus, they are offering a sweet deal to us in chicago, which will bring my television bill down to 1/2 of what it was; not as much HD, but for about $50 per month, I will get there Digital Platinum pkg for 12 months, and they will lower my cable modem bill $15.00 per...

    Where are all the VOOMERS Going?

    I think I am going to try Comcast in Chicago; they have a pretty sweet deal going on now; Basically, you get EVERYTHING they offer, including HD, digital cable, and everything else for 55.67 a month for the next 12 months; its actually 89.50, but you get 4 months free, so it averages out to...

    1:20Am 2/01/2005 Voom is Dead? No.

    you wanted them to shut your service off, they finally did and you are STILL complaining? Can people try and go one day without bitching about the VOOM service? God, I have never seen a bigger group of whining, complaining, crybabies, then seem to come to this forum... If you hate Voom...

    voom just installed

    welcome to all the "new Voomers"! and, just ignore the "attitudes" you will read alot in this forum; for some reason, this forum attracts lots of folks who look for the bad side of EVERYTHING!! I am a 1 year Voomer, zero install issues, zero billing issues, had poor OTA reception, called and...

    Anyone else quiting when the new prices kick in?

    My feeling exactly... if you can't find SOMETHING on Voom to occupy your attention, you wont find it anywhere, except your DVD collection, your pc, or in your bedroom!!

    Promises promises

    geez, Sean, I didnt know that he had THAT many negative posts... Don't get me wrong; the great thing about this country is that ANYONE can voice their opinion about ANYTHING with out fear of reprisals, its just that after awhile, seeing the same stuff get rehashed over and over and over...

    Promises promises

    I too am sick of all the negativity, whining, complaining, and childish behaviour that many of the posters here exhibit..Not kissing Seans' butt, by any means, but he is one of a handful of folks here that likes to point out the POSITIVE things that VOOM has brought into our lives...we ALL know...

    Will Voom Survive?

    is this another one of those "self fufilling prophacies" that folks keep posting here??? Geez, it seems like people are actually HOPING Voom goes under...is the glass half empty or half full....is it partly cloudy or partly sunny...doesn't ANYONE try to find the positives in life?????

    What the hell is wrong with this provider!?!?

    Well, In my 20+ years of computing/pcmanagement, I have yet to see ANY system go a year without a reboot; if you are that lucky, then the gods of silicon must smile up on you... And, if you don't think that in 18 months from now, there won't be a Vooom, or some variation of what it is now...

    What the hell is wrong with this provider!?!?

    well, this is life on the bleeding edge, isnt it!! my advice, and I am sure most others here feel the same way, is that if it bothers you THAT much, then simply change providers... Even though I am not thrilled with every aspect of my Voom service, I must say I have had almost 6 months of...

    How to help VOOM

    I agreee Dvlos; thats why I am more interested in VOOM increasing their HD Quantity and Quality, then adding the FOOD network, or HGTV, or even Lifetime..leave THAT to Direct TV,and increase the HD quality and Quantity on VOOM.... VOOMs best chance for survival is focusing on their CORE...

    How to help VOOM

    well, lets be honest, since less than 5% of the households in this country actually own HD televisions, and VOOM's entire reason for being is their claim to the most HD content, its obvious as to why the subscription base is so small.... in 5 years, when 20 or 30% of households have HD, things...

    Bye, Bye Voom

    He probably meant his receiver was able to get them, but he obviously had a seperate OTA antenna...When I had DTV, ii got my locals in HD, but it was due to having a Sammy 360, that was able to grab them...
