I feel just the same when UltimateTV was put to rest. Was a great product that just wasn't marketed correctly and could have been a real force in the market. Now when VOOM looks to have their act together they are now gone, too. Can't see going back to DISH, but loved VOOM and was hoping somehow they could go on and make it. Guess I always pull for the underdog, which sometimes offer the best service or product, or at least try to. Have DirecTV and DirecTV HD (e-86 receiver), and had VOOM. Have three DirecTV Tivos (two 240 hour units), but not the HD one. Now they may not be around in a year or two. Enjoyed VOOM, but now I guess I will just stay with DirecTV and maybe in a few years be back to my present VOOMER day. Really feel I have lost a good friend!
