    Discovery HD on Dish?

    Anyone subscribe to Disc HD on Dish? I heard a few different takes on if it would have commercials and how they might be implemented. Also, how well does the new plug-in decoder/decompressor work? Any significant pic quality issues vs straight up with the 8vsb? module?

      Sorry Pete, can't help you there. I am interested in any replies tho' as I haven't made the HD-decoder plunge yet either.

              Sure, the upgrade will be "free" but the shipping & handling will be $1,000. :>)

                  I think the deal is for a years subsciption you get the new decoder for "free". I just think they overpriced it, tho. One channel for ~$7 month....with commercials, last I heard. If it as commercial free, maybe. If it included other HD channels, better. If they had a recorder that did HD, ala Dishplayer, better yet. (I hear rumors about 2003 on that one!)
