I'm assuming that it's on 9420 in the 8psk format? Sounds like it's time for me to place my order.

Still 3 hours repeating over and over.
I thought I would hate this but it lets me catch all the programs.
Discovery HD only has 100 hours of HD programming at the present time, but they have receieved an excellent response so far so I hear they are planning to ramp things up.
The no commercial breaks is good news.

James they are airing commercials on Discovery HD between shows that state as of the first of the month there will be no commerical interuptions of the shows.
I would expect that between shows we will still have commercials. Which is OK I like the movie trailers anyways.

Ahhhh. That's why it cost so much. Producing HD content and not running commercials...
Sounds like pay-TV
Here's another update.
The free "preview" on 9443 @61.5 will be extended until 8/14.
Presumably that will give more potential Disc HD subs to sample it & will keep those waiting for the "Enhanced HD" module from missing anything.

Saw on Discovery Hd tonight that they said there will be no commercial breaks after the 29th July.

:hi: Welcome GwMontee!
I agree Discovery HD is really expensive for what it offers. I subscribed to it for a year because I felt I had to support HD. The big disapointment with Discovery HD is the lack of programming.
I have already seen everything already.
But the wow factor for friends makes it worth it I guess.
