A bunch of international being renamed

MLB Innings added channel groups added
 
QVC HD in test may explain why SHINE (HD infomercials on channel 278) was taken away. Previously, TAG HD was taken away from channel 278 before SHINE was added, apparently as a temporary fill-in so we still get the same number of HD channels.

QVC definitely pays to have their channels on Dish. I know I'm in the minority here, but this is one HD channel that I have missed since switching back from Directv. I don't watch it that often, mostly before bed (it's very relaxing). Plus David, the host of the Kitchen show on Wednesday nights its hilarious.
 
Why do we need shopping channels in HD? We don't, but the channel probably pays more to Dish to run their channel in HD. Money talks.
Hey, the shopping channels are paying to be carried. So, if they are willing to pay more for more bandwidth to be carried in HD, and it helps keep our bills down, then I am all for it! :thumbup
