I hope so too, I have spent quite some time watching this one on E* in the last week. D* should put this one on the top of the list.
Since you're a supporting member do a search for dbstalk in the pub and see the dislike of that site from a number of members. Heck the founder here also makes comments about how up tight they are, remember he founded this site after the big blowup with the DBSTalk staff. IIRC when their site had problems with stability back in the fall when D* lit up all their HD a number of folks here were making fun about their outages. There's just a lot of bad blood between a number of members here and DBSTalk.
With that said, even though Scott and his staff have made great strides on beefing up the D* section here when it comes to D* stuff I ususally find it there first.
tell me about it. you see the stop sat tax now link i have in my signature? they did not like that over there at all when i added it to my signature at dbs. what? whatever! i was a member there before becoming a member here and i have 4 times the amount of posts here than over there.thanks sat guys for letting us speak our minds and for all the great info and great members here at sat guys.
did you guys notice how D changed the add for the hd comparison? they removed E from the add of stomping the competition.

I dunno. I stopped going there a year ago and I havent missed out on a single thing.

You generally get more indepth comments on some issues, also more of a variety just due to the increased number of posters.
I browse both sites daily, but try and use this forum more.
As far as I'm concerned, more HD PPV channels add absolutely no value. I block them in my guide. I would give more value to adding a single HD national channel, such as the Travel Channel, than I would to 10 more HD PPV channels.
And I've rather have 3 VOOM HD channels than 30 HD PPV channels.

They dont add any value, but its not a biggie because satracer has already confirmed they are adding them to fill space. As nationals are added in the coming weeks, hd ppv's will be pulled back down.
Some peoples reactions are almost like D* stated they are adding hd ppv's instead of nationals, which is not the case. Agreements are not yet in place, when they are we'll get more channels.

I dont know if its really a test, but why not use them for something until more nationals are ready. People seem to feel that D* is wasting the space, but not really since they dont currently have anything to put there.
Like what else? They've been using the current HD PPV's for when they're not needed for the game only HD RSN's, and they're making a bunch of those 24x7 so that option's gone.
my issue with Directv is simple.....you knew that you would have the capacity and you knew what channels would be available when you lit up the satellite. so you should have planned in advance to have contracts ready for new channels. this is being reported at the other site that contracts are not in place. I still remain positive that we will see some great channels i just am confused about how the contracts and the timelines are being managed?
