If Dish was strapped for bandwidth and decided they had to get rid of ONE HD channel which one would you choose? For me it's ESPN-HD. Yeah I know that wouldn't happen but I can wish considering it's ESPN2-HD that mainly airs the different sh*t like Archery, Karate, etc.

cut the number of voom channels in half and combine thier content.
you wouldn't loose anything that way, and you would gain the bandwidth.
 
I treat all the HD channels like they were my kids. I couldn't part with a single one. But that demo channel would be the kid who ran away or was constantly in trouble at school, drinking, has a police record I bet. :)
 
:rolleyes: You know, just because something's in the guide doesn't mean it's taking up space.

NFL-HD, NBA-HD, HD Events, and HD-PPV are all the same channel. Basically, when a game or event is on, there is no HD-PPV. How is that a waste?

I'd get rid of TNT, because I'll take 1280x1080i over stretch-o-vision any day. Ocasionally they will show a good movie in actual HD, but it's censored and full of commercials, so what's the point? UniversalHD has Law And Order too, so that's another 25% of their actual HD programming you can get elsewhere. All that leaves is a few Basketball games a week...and I think Kael would agree with me that a HD channel only on a few hours a week is a waste. :)

So my vote stands, get rid of them all !. :D
I didnt vote Voom, coz i dropped that already :D
 
Wow I'll keep Rush just for some of the LaLiga games, I like Mr.Magoo and the Pink Panther on Animania, Ultra is a different story altogether :rolleyes: .

Personally dump the Demo channel, at lease put all the bandwidth it is sucking up to use.
 
Well, I'd dump the one that you like best, just to be a jerk!


No, really, the demo channel. Let them demo with a normal HD channel at the stores. What's the difference? Or demo with a recorded HD program on a DVR or something.
 
My choice would be TNT-HD. Do they have any original HD programming on it? All I've ever seen is up-converted movies with commercials! Ughhhh. :rolleyes:
