Voom was a good concept, but done wrong. 15 channels was too many channels. They should have consolidated it into about 3 or 4 channels, with less repeats, and this way it would have been viable. No other satellite or cable company was going to put on 15 channels of constant repeats. It was...

They are in a no win situation. No matter what channels they add there will always be someone unhappy wanting other channels. That is why they usually try to add a variety of channels to make people of varying interest happy.

Interesting website I found. Just go here and put in your zip code, and you can see what Cablevision offers compared to the other companies in this area : Where is HD ?

I was thinking the same thing. Cablevision has really added a lot lately, but every time they add a channel the next day someone is looking for them to add more. Be patient, they have done a good job adding channels, and I am sure they will add more.

Just curious. What is the most requested channel or channels for Cablevision to add ?

The addition of the VOOM channels is a nice step, and the CAPACITY for 500 is good, too. The only thing that would be a concern is can Cablevision get contracts for these mainstream channels. They have had many negotiating problems in the past. It will not be easy for them to reach an...

So what are we getting here ? Just the VOOM channels or will there be other HD channels with the VOOM channels ?

Why do I have a feeling something big is coming here. :D

Sounds very, very interesting. ;)

Nice catch. I usually don't watch ch. 2 news, but it looks real good.:)

No, there is still no deal. Sources say they have a deal with In Demand to carry the package. HOWEVER, it is contingent on them agreeing to carry the baseball channel in 2009. As of this afternoon, they still have not agreed to carry the baseball channel, so no MLB EI.

Well, I checked it out with several media people covering this and they all say there is no deal with Cablevision to carry MLB EI. So surprise, surprise more wrong information from a CSR, and a supervisor this time. I am sure they are fighting over carriage of the baseball channel and will...

Well, I just got off the phone with a Supervisor in the sales dept. at Cablevision. She said they have been told by corporate they have a deal to carry MLB Extra Innings. The Supervisor also added that they will definitley be carrying MLB Extra Innings this season. She said they are not...

Yes, I agree. Are any of you cable guys out there ? We need your help here. Do you know what Cablevision's MLB Extra Inning plans are / Sean, I really don't doubt what you heard, but I just think Mike and Mike could not be privy to such information.

They specifically mentioned Cablevision ? How in the world could Mike and Mike know Cablevision's plans ?

I am not questioning you and asking you to reveal your source, but can you tell me where you hear this ? Was it from a reliable source ?

What does this mean for Cablevision customers ? I see no mention of Cablevision in the story. Are they carrying the package or what ?

Well, this is it. Either Dish Network gets an agreement or it is off to DirecTV.

Personally, I would rather have some other HD channels that are out there or coming instead of VOOM.

That would be a great thing. What does everyone think this means ? Will they add VOOM ? ESPN2HD ? HDNET ? What does everyone think. I know I am dreaming of lots of new HD channels.

HBK409 or Mergatroy, can you confirm this ?

I saw a repeat of the Jets post game show in HD this morning on SNY HD and it looked great. I am glad to have SNY HD 24 hours.

Yes, I saw it too. Thanks for the great advance notice, Mergatroy. I really appreciate it. :)

That's great news. I wanted Cablevision to carry SNY HD full time. :D

Thanks for the help. I'll try it. :)
