Why make us order Rush, Equator and A&E HD?

Woo Hoo, what a waste of B/W!
CMON, we all know the HF channels are just regurgitated VOOM originals.
I watched them for 6 months on my Voom DSR550 until they went boom.
Now they live on in satellite heaven for Dishnet subs, all 21 or so of them.

The WOW prevue is over, HD is almost mainstream, repackage them exactly as Sensual Poet has repeatedly suggested and get some new content.

Did they switch these channels on for everyone with the HD pack? I caved in and added them a month ago, but I saw this on another thread.

I also noticed that 807, where they were showing the promotional reel encouraging people to order these channels, is gone.

The free preview applied to all clients with HD receivers. Clients that had the HD Value Pack continued to receive the channels after the free preview, exempt those with the old HD pack or Legacy programming package. Those with the old Value pack simply had to call for us to make the switch and those with Legacy package had to switch to Genesis

Sportsfan, just to clarify, I have the "old HD pack", these channels always showed up 'red' in my guide (meaning I could not get them), I never called to ask to get them, and now I have them. You interpreted my original post correctly.

JB1 have you called Express Vu recently about anything? If yes, the agent probably did, as I always do the change from the old HD value pack to the new one

If not there might be a free preview on, can not say for sure as i'm on vacation!

Or maybe the compagny decided to automatically make the switch for all clients (which would be nice!)
