Nice screw job D* )o:

[Madtown HD Junkie]

with D* screwinmg the HD loyalists with a $100 charge for a free service last year I am thinking of leaving D* after years as a loyal customer. Is Dish any good?

 

[jeslevine]

each have their plus and minus points. Dish services are slightly lower in price than DTV. Right now dish has Voom's HD programming content.

If I were you I would wait until after September, and then see what each provider has to offer

 

[Alvarez]

not to mention alot of people believe they will drop that 100$ charge because the backlash that will ensue...

That is a HUGE difference that many people will be upset about.

100 for what? im totally confused... unless this is about Sunday ticket going up

Stay with D* the lesser of two evils, They people that work for dish are a bunch of Idiots, you get a different answer from each one you talk too, I also think the PQ is better with D*. (as you can see i wear glasses)

100 extra if you want ST in HD + 219 base price for a total of 320 dollars

yeah it took me a minute to figure it out but i wanted clarification

Dish's HD quality is totally awesome. Nothing like Directs HD Light. As far as SD picture quality, some channels on Direct are better, some on Dish are better. If you want HD, then Dish is the place to be.

Actually, it is $219 for ST and $99 for Superfan, so it is $318.

When did DISH start offering Sunday Ticket? If you are complaining about $100 for it in HD you won't even get it at all on DISH. Wait until Directv has the two Ka satellites up then see who offers more HDTV and what the picture quality is. If DISH hadn't leased temporarily the space on Rainbow 1 they would still be hurtin for broadcast space.

Except for AMC-15 & AMC-16, and E-10, and E-4 ...

Unfortunately what you may see are more price increases.

Jamey and Vurbano...if you want BOTH at the same time....well then you are talking about a 2 year commitment at $20 a month....
