Speaking of the HD LF, does anyone know if it's possible to subscribe to Dish or DirecTV and only pay for the HD channels? I'm starting to think I may want to do that once the [HD] STAR rolls out, so I can still catch narrationless clips of songs. I would have to pay for it myself, of course.
SD channels are included as part of the HD packaging on DirecTV. :yes:

My friend Autumn, who lives near Madison, just got two tornado warnings from the same storm you're experiencing. I've gotten texts from her and she's literally excited for that. Overall, everything is fine.

Yeah, looks like Tampa has been bombarded all evening. Saw a Heavy Thunderstorm report on the HD LF for Tampa earlier.

Speaking of the HD LF, does anyone know if it's possible to subscribe to Dish or DirecTV and only pay for the HD channels? I'm starting to think I may want to do that once the [HD] STAR rolls out, so I can still catch narrationless clips of songs. I would have to pay for it myself, of course.
Spend $30 a month and have to hook up a satellite....or watch a local forecast clip online.  :whistling:

Are you THAT desperate to not hear narration?

You mean you would actually waste money to have a separate satellite subscription, in addition to your cable subscription, just to have clips without narration? Sad waste of money...

It's no wonder your parents refuse to give you the privileges you want... I get them because unlike you I know how to manage my time and money (no offense).

I want to have clips for myself. I don't always have internet access, and I can't ask everyone for every last file or song I want. It's not that big of a deal either, I was just asking :whistling:
Ah yes, to have satellite for narrationless LFs. One of the reasons I would rather have cable. Just watch it when it rains hard and you're recording TWC with satellite, too. :whistling:

:rofl2:

But Aaron, if you are that desperate, just record TWC from the Comcast Central thing. Small video, but they bypassed the IntelliStar so you get a raw TWC feed when you just watch that.

I almost signed up for AOL again just so I could mess around with the old versions that I had when I was a kid, but then I figured out how to get it for free.

BTW Aaron, If you wanted to, get Dish, they have TWC in HD on their most basic Top 120 package for $24.99/mo! That'll only put a half a tank of gas for my car :P
