[wase4711]

Here is the big news I am waiting for a call -- Sci Fi HD, Bravo, USA HD, multiple feeds of HBO and multiple feeds of Starz.

Are you listening Dish?

Yeah.. It would be nice.. as predicted, TBS HD has NOTHING outside of baseball in HD. I think many of you who were clamoring for this channel are going to regret it once we're stuck with Rosanne reruns in strechovision. Undoubtably there's a contract now. What channel are we going to lose out on now because of it?

They really should use the settop boxes to give information like this to its subs.

A good idea in theory, but they'd end up abusing it like Comcast did. I don't care that Comcast is hiring, or that they're having a job fair, or that they have some overpriced WWE BS on PPV, or....
Yes, they did occasionally use it to let subscribers know about channel reorgs or new channels coming online; however, mostly they used it to SPAM me with BS totally unrelated to the system.
