Lightbulb Any future HD channels???

Hi, guys...It's been a few weeks since I upgraded my Dish Network service to HD package...I guess I can't complain much about it... On the good side, I was lucky enough to get a good technician who installed my equipment quite well...On the bad side, not all HD channels are worth watching which it's normal considering some of the digital channels are worthless, too...Personally, I like TNT HD, ESPN HD, WORLDSPORTS HD, DISCOVERY HD, HDNET HD, KUNG FU HD and MONSTERS HD...Some other HD channels are Ok if you like video games or adventures sports but some are just pathetic...

Well, I would love to see feedback in regards to any future HD channels...It would be awesome to see channels like SCI FI, FX, USA Network, SPIKE TV in HD...That's is as far as my preferences...All your comments will be wellcomed...Thanks

I would like to see more PPV movies. Since I don't own a high def DVD player, I would love to see the latest releases and would pay for them. I've only seen two movies on the HDPPV channel since I got it a few weeks ago.

Satellite and cable providers are at the mercy of the networks.They can't offer an hd channel if the network doesn't offer one.

The ones you mentioned would be great (SCI FI, FX, USA Network, SPIKE TV). They would be some of my top picks as well.

Old thread, not that you can't respond to an old thread. I just have no idea what Bexon was talking about anyway.
