I disagree. 1 hour of BSG in HD or the NFL in HD is worth 48 hours of some of the Voom cinema channels. Even when I had Voom with Voom as the DBS I said they needed to consolidate.HD is HD.

The 2 hours of Battlestar Galactica and Stargate are double the amount of time spent watching VOOM, which is 0.
Yeah and Voom has HD Content you will not see any where else.
Yea for good reason.
I understand channels such as USA and SciFi have limited HD programming, but what they do have is worth more than those voom channels. I would also take an uprezed channel easily in replace of most of the voom channels.
And did you see it once?
Like James Bond marathon in HD?
Spanish soccer live in HD?
Some great MonstersHD movies?
Music concerts on RaveHD?
You don't need to dump anything. No one has to give up any content if you just combine some of these channels and make them even more attractive to carriers. WHy not watch BMX pig right after La liga on the same channel and ax the red rover come on over type games, or other silly junk on Worldsport? Change the name of the station if you need to. WHy not combine Ultra and Treasure and gallery? Why not combine gameplay and animania? Seems to me that the goal is to make money and they can do that by getting picked up by cable and D* if they combine channels to have more compelling content. This issue really pisses me off becuase I love some of the content on these channels, yet they have spread it so thin that carrier in their right mind is going to dedicate that much bandwidth to all of them except E* who is now got to be sorry they did..Scott, I couldn't be more with you !!
I will take my voom content over the invisible HD, any freakin day of the week.
Some people are just plain .... Well, non educated when it comes to what an HD channel is..
Give the channel an HD label, and bang, it's HD because direct says it is. Like Speed HD, they say no HD til February, but is labeled HD, so it must be. Then they get mad because Dish doesn't have it, or the Direct Fanboys are so excited because they do.
We turn on Equator during Dinner each night, very relaxing to watch the awesome HD shots from all over the place.
We have a get together. We leave Equator in the background and I listen to the great comments in the background.

I could dump 4 or 5 of the Voom, but I could dump TBS and TNT too

I have a great idea!
Let's combine all of the channels that YOU like the most into one channel so that it will free up band with for the channels I like.
As I said before. That's YOUR opinion! Many others do feel differently.
