So, here is what changed from 7/21 to 7/22 (thru 10/6/10)
To get FREE HD for LIFE, you might sign up for and maintain PREMIER!
Best Buy's Gift Card program dropped to $50 + $200 from $50 + $300 (unless you buy specific models of Panasonic 3D HDTVs, then it's $50 + $400).
CostCo's Gift Card program dropped from $50 + $200 to $50 + $130.
As expected (as was available before 7/22) 5 Free Months of Premier with 5x $59.99 for NFL Sunday Ticket. Then no discounts besides FREE HD for LIFE.
Can't confirm if the 2nd year $14 discount is still regional or not. It is not reflected in Best Buy's new discount brochure. I still would qualify where I live.
....otherwise, things are pretty much the same.
oh, BTW, the brochure I got last week showing smaller monthly discounts and only $150 in rebates was LAST YEARS brochure they had put out.

What do these have to do with each other. Just because a channel(s) is in MPEG4, does NOT mean D* has to give it to you in HD for FREE.
Look at all the MPEG4 local markets - those locals are put up in HD only, but unless you have HD access on your account, you can watch them ONLY in SD.
BTW, I don't know where people keep coming up with this, but they will NOT be switching ALL channels to MPEG4 "soon". There are too many SD only receivers out there now - not to mention the fact that D* is STILL installing MPEG2 SD receivers in most local markets for SD only subs, so this should give you a clue how fast everything will be MPEG4...

We are still not 100% sure there will be a NFL season this year.

Thought the bargining agreement ends this year. So maybe no NFL next year.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed
Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.
Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

Yup, I agree, I'd rather be 2 or 3 till the last few weeks.They get cruel sometimes, very very cruel.
Season 2 order already in hand:
'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1
I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.
Stay out of my office. I rarely have shoes or socks on in the office. My office and business is at home thoughI don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.
