Wait how come you subscriber with Voom if you want SD then you need DTV in a major way. I think they carry the most SD right now. No.. I disagree totally why wouldn't you want HGTV-HD? If Voom can an HGTV type channel is what they SHOULD carry as an exclusive over Moov or Cinema 6 is the demand is high enough right?
I would rather they add Wealth HD first then SCIFI even though I love SciFi because I'd rather have the HD. If there are no new HD channels to add... ok fine add an SD, I dont care I'm not going to watch it anyway. If Bravo gets Stargate and Farscape in HD do you think I need SCIFI SD?? hahah..
I ordered the Starz Plus Pack on 7/24/2004. With the upcoming price increase, I asked for assurance that my $39 price for VOOM would remain in effect should I later cancel Starz or wish to subscribe to another Plus Pack. I was told in no uncertain terms by the CSR that there would be no price increase to my VOOM subscription price regardless of how many times I added or deleted Plus Packs. I asked to speak to a supervisor who verified this fact and noted this information in my account.
I called last night about another issue, but again asked about the above scenario. Both the CSR and her supervisor verified there would be no change to the VOOM subscription price through 2004 if merely changing Plus Packs. Of course, if you were to upgraded/downgrade VOOM<--->VA VA VOOM then I think the new pricing will apply.
Anyway, ask the CSR to place a note in your account when changing Plus Packs just to be sure you won't be Zinged by the new pricing structure. If you have any problems, PM me and I will provide you with the names and CSR numbers of the individuals I spoke to.

I agree. I would be perfectly content with just the 21 VOOM Exclusives and the HD MarqueePack.
The new pricing scheme is a bit much. Perhaps the pricing should go something like this which would keep both the SD and HD camps happy:
VOOM Basic Pack (everyone must sub) $11.95 (the 21 VOOM Exclusives & FCC required SD PI channels).
Cable Favorites Pack (all the SD channels) $28.00 (VOOM Basic & Cable Favs=$39.95)
HD MarqueePack $14.00 (hey, the billing statement says it's a $10 value, but a few more channels are probably planned)
Sports Pack & the movie packs $14.00 each
This way those that want SD can have it at the same price they are paying now and those that want just the HDs in the VOOM package they have now would still be paying $39.95
New Prices Too Much!
I just heard about this.....I too would never try Voom for the prices their offering......I did it because of the $0 price down and free install.....otherwise I'd be with DTV.
After the end of the year if my prices go up....I'm afraid I'll have to look at DTV even if they don't have a lot of HD......I can't aford anymore here....it's only TV.
