voom's channel additions?


What about Fox news, MSNBC, WGN, TSN, Sky news and Sports and many other national channels? Aside from HD, V* needs to pile on the national channels to even begin to garner interest in the service.

Yes, these are not available and maybe more. Remember V* has promised to double the SD channels by late 2004 with the introduction mpeg4.
 
How can the fit all these movie channels (in SD and HD) on like 5 TP's but D* with like 30 cant fit them?

It's more than 5 TP. Here is the list of TP available to VOOM 1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, and 24. Two of these were awarded to them for 180 days lease. There will be an auction around April 2004. They are using Digicipher 2 8PSK which I believe D* is not using. Correct me if I am wrong?
