I wasn't into CSI at first either, I had a lot of friends talk about it. Once I sat down and really watched a few I was hooked.
: I am so glad i have the dish hd package and get all these channels RSN exclusion from HD only
I agree totally. This is the ONLY reason keeping me from dropping my package down.
Seeing how Cubs and Sox games are also in HD on WGN and WCUI, maybe i will consider this again.

Take it to the pit. BTW the press release says all channels will launch on Monday except the RSN's will launch on Wednesday. Go play with your nuts... squirrel....
Very exciting indeed. This has been a fun couple of weeks with tall the speculation and now the payoff.
Question about WGN HD: Do they do the stretch-o-vision thing like TBS? I was watching a Cubs game on WGN HD at a bar via a cable provider and the HD game was stretched. I have a feeling the bar just had their TV set to stretch, but I just wanted to be sure...
This is gonna hurt the cable companies now that both sat services are pushing way more HD than they are.
Now this makes it very difecult for me to drop Dish . I am moving next week and I was going to cancel my Dish and get Directv when I moved to my new house in 2 weeks . Now I don't know if I should still cancel Dish and get Directv or saty with the dish when I move?
Could someone tell me , what HD channels Directv has that Dish will not after all of these HD channels are added?

I would have to agree. Ive they will be able to get Speed HD and Spike HD they will have all the channels I watch anyways. I would for sure drop to the HD only pack? Will the cinamax for a penny deal work with the HD only pack? Anyone know how many of these new HD channels show up if you have the essential $10 HD package?
I forgot also I would need to have Comedy Central HD.

I know. All my friends have have Comcast and I know how it works. But now I can watch the Warriors, Sharks, A's, Giants in HD when they have it and not that crappy SD picture I've had to watch for about 15 years!!
This channel will honestly be best in the fall when basketball and hockey are back. I wonder if any of the college football they broadcast will also be in HD... hmmm... Occasional baseball in the meanwhile works just fine for me.
This was my #1 Channel.... time to do some soul searching and figure out what I would want next... probable either FX, Spike or Speed... or more movie channels...
Speaking of which... With the additional Cinemax channels I think it's time to invest in a few external HDs... there's no way I'll be able to keep up anymore.

Unless the games happen to be on CSNBA+. I don't think that getting the regular channel in HD equals also getting CSNBA+ in HD.
But we can hope.... besides, that probably won't be an issue until the fall when more sports are back in action.
Dish will add Travel, ABC Family, Hallmark Movie, and World Fishing (I still think this is a joke) of which Direct does not have (not counting VOOM or RSN's)
Direct after these additions will have FX, Spike, Nick, VH1*, MTV* CMT*, Fox Business, some premium movie channels such as the Straz suit, CST*, Fuel*, and Speed which Dish still doesn't have.
*Channels with no HD content yet.
I don't think any one has CSNBA+ in HD. But you never know. I'm so happy. It was so hard to watch the Sharks is SD during the playoffs. It was almost unwatchable.
