"We have noticed that VOOM content arrives at different rates of compression. Heavily compressed content will show the usual MPEG-2 block-based artifacts and posterization in large areas of the same color, such as the sky. We can't be sure how much a particular MPEG-2 stream is being compressed (or recompressed), and whether the content comes to VOOM in this form, or whether VOOM is recompressing to eat less transmission bandwidth from its satellites. But wherever it's occurring, it's clear that some of VOOM's HD content isn't coming in at anywhere near the rated 25Mbits/sec bit-rate."
Ok dear VOom, EVERYONE IS NOTICING THE LOW B/W!! Today there was mosquito noise over 50% of Extreme RUsh... whatever it takes when you go to WM9 or new sat, you must increase the bandwidth tot 19mbps under mpg2 or comparable!!!
PS - The majority of the review the bitch about the remote and the ePG? So Ok Voom looks like these crtics wans smaller remote, better PG that's more interactive, more bandwidth, and a DVR. Who else is asking for this out there? Oh yeah most of your customers too. As they said then "Voom would be the provider to beat"
