Free VOD from Dish...is there any progress?

[jeffmwknight]

Sorry if this has been discussed in another thread but I couldn't find it. Any progress on the Free VOD from Dish.....aka Comcast?

I am watching it right now. Look in "DishOnline" and sort it by "Free". The interface is really bad but it does work.

Hmmm... I got about 3 titles that came back in the search. I must be doing something wrong. I went to DishOnline which sent me to CinemaNow. Went to advanced search. In search box typed .............. and selected 0.99 <. Got just 3 titles back.

look in the "TV entertainment" area of DishOnline for the free stuff.

Well.. that maybe a problem since I haven't gotten around to connecting my 722 to the internet since my wireless router is on the other side of the house. Ok, thanks...will check once I get this resolved.

Approx how much content is available now. I want know if it is worth my while to go out and get a network bridge or a homeplug and set this up. I don't want to do this if there are only a small amount of content available.

Thousands of content ... literally ... not sure how much of it is really quality stuff ... but there is a boatload of stuff out there.

"Thousands of content" ...... and they are all FREE!!!!!

theoak is right. There is a ton of stuff. However, any of the good stuff costs money (think movies and good tv shows), and the rest is garbage. Also, it is basically structured into a giant list that you have to scroll through... It is the worst onDemand system I have experienced.

AHHHH!!!! That's what I thought. Thanks.

Yup ... what he said ... :up

So in the list .... if it has no "$" then the item is FREE?

Just wanting to make sure...

Thanks,

I am curious about this as well... no "$" = free?

No dollar sign means it is free.
