A few months ago, voom only had 2000 subscriber then it grew to 10,000, after which a few months later it was reported to be about 40,000. This shows HD is growning; the same 20,000 will be 200,000 then 2 million, then 20 million. A superior product will always shine. Voom's main expenses are fixed expenses, the satellites, all other costs are variable, such as installation when they aquire a subscriber. Voom has spent most of the money for its infrastucture and had they stayed the coarse i believe voom would have surpassed both major carriers in the next two years. Most businesses go bankrupt due to lack of money. Voom should have had deep pocket backers like Bill Gates or Paul allen, on their board and backing them financially. History would have had a different course. Charles dolan should have picked a different board, with members such as Mark Cuban, Gates, etc that would have seen the revolution. In three years the number of HD sets will jump to 40 million from 2 million today. 38 million more perspective buyers, possible voom customers.
