I'd prefer they remove the shopping channels all together in both SD and HD, or make them part of a separate tier package for those that want to pay for them.
Typically shopping channels pay D* to be carried, and some of them pay a little commision on sales IIRC. So if they did this they'd actually have to raise your monthly rate.
Also, some of those shopping channels are owned by networks that have agreements with the providers that they have to show them or they will not allow the Network to be shown, or a major channel, not nessasaraly a Big 4.

curious but how does Directv notify customers of new HD channels? You would think they would send out an email - it seems I get new channel info from checking the forums - I wonder how many out there have no idea new channels were added since they don't automatically add to your guide.
After seeing some of the new HD recordings by my little monsters, I am envious. Now they get more HD shows in one day than I get to see in one week
and they will get to watch them the 100th time without showing any sign of fatigue. Arrr the humanity!
and they will get to watch them the 100th time without showing any sign of fatigue. Arrr the humanity!Not always! They do sometimes have it on their website,but I have paperless billing ,so I'm not sure if on your monthly statement it might say something ,but I can't confirm!
It's been mentioned a few times that D* should use the e-mail system that's built into all the receivers for communications like this, but for some reason they just don't do it.
By the way Disney HD looks like crap! Not everything ,but alot of programming. Sorry D* I'll keep watching the SD version. Even my kids were complaining that the picture is blurry. So I took it off my favorites. ESPNews looks great though, Toon disney not great either.
NO ! What shows are in HD? Maybe if you can point one out to me ,maybe I'll give you the responce that you want to hear!
I can not remember the specific names but one was the Mickey Mouse thing, the other was the Pooh show as I recall.
I did flip through Disney the other night and noticed that most of the HD shows are during prime time. Even those in SD look better on the HD channel than they do on the SD channel, especially since they do not stretch the image.
Right now the Emperor's New School is in HD on Disney HD and Lilo & Stitch TV series is in HD on Toon Disney HD.
Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, The Adventures of Tigger & Pooh, Bunny Town and almost all of the animated shows are in HD on Disney HD. They all look great in HD.
It looks good too. I guess I just have to watch these channels after 9 am. I must say I was a little disappointed.I'll watch tonight to see if Hannah Montana,Zack and Cody,and Cory in the House are in HD,since thats my daughters favorite shows.
