I couldnt resist with the recent D* downrezzing. Are the days of HDlite beginning for D*? Recent reports are that HDnetmovies looks no better than DVD now.
If you like PQ it might be time to leave Directv

They're gearing up for J6P to tune in and say WOW, what a great picture. In 10 years we'll be telling our kids/grandkids; "I remember waaaaay back at the turn of the Century when HD was like looking out the window.....".
Shouldn't you post this on the DirecTV forum? Are you just trying to neutralize Not Good... with this topic?
OK guys,
Let say I no longer want "HD Lite" as you call it.
Where would you suggest I go??? Voom???
Ok fine. Lets say I now switch to Voom.
Can you tell me how many months until I'll have to switch back to D* because Doom wont be in biz anymore?????

My crystal ball tells me:
There will be no Voom DVR at a price people can afford.
Voom will be bought out by E*. They dont care about the subs but need the satellite. E* will be the leader in HD for two years until D* sats go up.
Either way I dont think it will be long before you're watching Voom on your 921.

Don't you all know by now...
The assimilation has begun...resistance is FUTILE...VOOM
I still have D* for NFL ticket and the new HD games on D* are not the quality of OTA. Must be either Fox or D* is the problem. Since I have OTa I can compare them and OTA with little or no compression wins every time. Don't know about it technically, but visually D* HD seem impaired.
I agree
DirecTv's HD pic quality is really suffering. The only reason I have both Voom And D* is for D*'s SD and ST and Voom for the HD. I did realize after 2 weeks that My whole familly missed the HD movie channels and Vooms, I know :shocked , exclusive channels.

Since I wrote this I must defend it. The point is spelled out rather logically in the thread I thought. If you do like sports , in a big way, then I truly feel it is time for me at least to leave Voom. I can get no Fox Sporst net. That means no Baseball, college basketball and FB in some cases, though mostly BB. No sports ticket(s). I agree D* is kill'n their picture with stuffing FB on Sunday on the HD feeds but at least it's on. I don't hate Voom or I would no currently still have it. But if you prefer sports for your HD tastes I feel D* is better suited. I never watch Moov, hardly any of the old movies on cinema 10 or gallery. I enjoy the cartoons for kids, rave, rush, and HD news content at times. I don't expect them to conform to my wishes or tastes by any means but they could cut some of the crap out and lose many subs, up the bandwith, and thn truly boast the best PQ anywhere.
If I go to D*, which I also have current as of last sunday, I lose some channels I like but gain PPV, HDNet, and most importantly to me sports. Some people Vooms fits well. I was one, but with winter coming to WI and FB and BB gearing up soon I need sports. No service is perfect but some fits better than others at certain times.
