Is this the service that's supposed to offer the most HD programming??

X_cody_X · 03-30-2004, 03:06 PM

yes it is, i've seen commercials recently, but thats all i've heard of it

Yeah, 21 HD Exclusives... Some programming is not bad, others are more gimmick type stuff that has no substance other than looks pretty. BUT, it is cheaper than I was paying for cable (HD) and I get the same channels but more. (cept HDNet - Mark Cuban must have a thing against Voom)

All in all it is not too bad, they have some bugs that is for sure... But they continue to add channels and push out software updates so that is a plus.

interesting to see just what cablevision does with this... the other non terrestrials had a big loss initially.

I'm really considering getting this.

Does anyone know how much extra you have to pay for each tv in the house?

It is still 9.50 monthly lease for the reciever, and a 5 dollar mirror fee for the extra rooms. It is not a bad deal.....
