Default It Really Pisses Me Off

I know, I know, this subject has been beaten to death but...

I am watching a concert I recorded from Rave and the picture and audio quality are so much better than what passes for HD on Dish now.

I don't believe what they took away from us!!!

Zoom = Super Quick, so quick that if you blinked; you missed them.
