  1. General DISH™ Discussion
    Thank you for answering me in an adult way. I appreciate that. I have never understood why people get so damn bent out of shape. It's only TV and honestly I wasn't trying to bash Dish or threaten anyone. The whole "leave if you don't like it" attitude is just kinda childish. OK I am done. I...
  2. General DISH™ Discussion
    I wasn't bashing Dish. So your mistaken there. Sorry I didn't give a glowing analogy . Like I said before all I was looking for was nice discussion but as usual it always ends in "Leave if you don't like it". I never made a threat against you. All I was saying is people tend to get really cocky...
  3. General DISH™ Discussion
    Why does it always have to end in that? If you don't like it leave. Why can't people have a nice discussion? I get it your going to protect Dish no matter what. I like Dish I wasn't bashing it. All I was wondering is why after a $20 increase do will still have less HD premiums than Direct. See...

    If it gets to exspensive I'll just drop it. Right now my wife and I can afford it. I don't mind paying for the convience our two hoppers bring. Again I will ask........ why get pissed off and let it ruin your day? It's TV!!! Why some of you let it get to you so much is beyond me. Go out and...
  6. General DISH™ Discussion
    If you think about it those channels are really only super popular when it's football season. They do get pretty good ratings for college basketball but their bread and butter is college football. I'm willing to pay a little more so people that don't want it can get rid of it. The only thing I...
  7. General DISH™ Discussion
    I would love to not pay for all the channels I don't watch too. I understand not wanting to pay for ESPN if you don't watch it. The truth is we all subsudize each others channels. That will not change any time soon. If it pisses you off that much.... cut the cord. It's only TV.
  8. General DISH™ Discussion
    You know the sad thing is when people were ticked about the whole AMC thing. This certain person would bash them and call the unloyal. He would pretty much call the people that watch The Walking Dead idiots. So now that he has a problem it's ok to bash Dish any chance he gets. Some people are...
  9. General DISH™ Discussion
    I stand corrected but i do believe that Satellite Guys and their forum helped. I also believe that if this forum would have had the same outrage and posts you guys would toot your horns over here too. You won't give credit because it's Satellite Guys. By the way maybe just maybe Dish decided to...
  10. General DISH™ Discussion
    Stewart if you actiually read the thread you would see a Dish employee confirmed it! You can say what you want but I believe the outrage over there helped. When have you seen two price hikes so close together from either Satellite company? It also looks like a hell of a lot more people seen it...
  11. General DISH™ Discussion
    I believe so! The thread on Satellite Guys was huge and people were pissed. The fact is that first info came from a Dish rep that confirmed it. So maybe people here should thank Satellite guys and quit pointing fingers. We are all adults. Grow up!! Check out the thread for yourself...
  12. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I hate it!!! The good thing is most of the games on ESPNU aren't top games. Who knows what games will be on there is this year though. My wife watches some shows on ABC Family and it's not HD either. She's not happy about that either but having the Epix channels have made up for it. Especially...
  13. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Your right about telling emotions. I'm not a fan boy of anything other than my family, my country and my Buckeyes. I will never be a fan boy of a TV service provider or a gadget. I have no idea why people get so damn up in arms over a TV service provider?? Are these people fan boys of their gas...
  14. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    We only pay one DVR fee. That' s $10 for whole home. We have one Hopper that does PTAT and the OTA tunner gets my wifes CW shows. That will free up two tuners on that Hopper. Plus we have 3 for whatever we want on the other Hopper. Truth be told we don't watch that many shows on a given night...
  15. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Yea I see that but they didn't offer us anything. That is until we switched. I'm not one to look for lots of credits and free receivers. It would have been nice to have been offered it though. Who knows we might end up back with Direct someday.
  16. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I see your point but what about two Hoppers? I left Direct because they wanted to charge me $300 for a Genie and a new 2 year contract. We were out of contract and didn't want to leave. My wife and I thought it over and we gave Dish a try. We took the 2 Hopper option and it's fantastic. We could...
  17. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I don't look at it like that. We do what is best for us. I'm not worried about what other people do. It does not bother me if some people like Direct over Dish and vice versa. I don't care if people record more cable channels then broadcast. Some people here take that stuff way to seriously...
  18. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Like lparsons21said.... The $199 is to own them. Don't take it so personal man. I'm not putting down Direct. I enjoyed it when I had it. Like I said it's only TV.
  19. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    My wife records some shows on The CW. So the over the air tuner works out good for her. The best thing about The Hopper is you can own two of them with Sling for $199 a piece. That's still cheaper than one Genie. So there is that! Dish Depot!
  20. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I think this is one of the best posts I have ever seen here!!:D You are right on with that post too. The truth is it's nobody's business why people switch every two years. It doesn't mean that a person is cheap either. People do what is best for them and their family. Who are we call people...
