They are horrendous. I can hardly read the score on the Magic game. E* really needs to up the BW or lower the compression. Since those of us who are getting it, paid $169 for it, the least they can do is make it watchable, but it's sooooooo bad that I cant stand it.

Wonder where the bandwidth is being diverted to from all the NHL Center Ice games that are MIA this season.
I don't think its all dish's fault b/c they showed highlights of the bobcats game tonite on tnt hd and it looked like crap on there so i dunno
Well the games first started, they were seriously horrendous. However, they progressively became better, and believe me when I turned back to the magic game, it was a relief to see the score. The Mag aren't my tem, Wiz are, but I do like to watch games and read the score.

Not necessarily true. Fast action sports events require more bandwidth dedicated to look good then your average sitcom or movie. With the NHL lockout, the regional sports channels are broadcasting things like flyfishing and a ton of paid programming infomercials 24-7. This frees up all kinds of bandwidth for other channels when you don't have 15 live pro hockey games being broadcasted during primetime hours on the regional sports networks along with CBC and TSN. I know what you are trying to say, but you are ignoring how statistical multiplexing works with Dish Network as well as ignoring that whats being currently broadcasted in its place doesn't require the same level of attention bandwidth-wise. Who is going to call up and complain that their regional sports providers world series of poker competition looks horrible? Its one thing if you are paying $140+ a season to see your favorite team play 82 games a season. Another thing entirely if the same networks are showing nonsense filler programs in their place.
