General Discussion / Dish Network: I *may* get it...

« on: August 16, 2010, 02:19:54 AM »

So, today, my parents were "in the talks" of switching satellite providers. Switching... as in switching from DirecTV to Dish Network. I'm very mixed about it. But it could give our budget a break.

I'll be a bit explicit here. I pay more than $200 a month for satellite TV. We don't have HBO/Showtime/Starz, nor we signed up for any event. (Heck, we don't even do Pay Per View  ). My dad has his stupid Sports Pack which is pointless to watch sometimes, and my mom has the 400's (the exclusive Spanish channels). We don't have HD either. Me? I only care for the following: TWC, ESPN, CurrentTV, the music channels, and Food Network.

It could be good for me, because it's my chance to get TWC in HD. Two of the house's TV's can do HD.

My questions are: How is Dish Network (in terms of service, and in general)? Are the HD channels good? What about the DVRs? Is the price for the basic package worth it? I'm also looking for opinions from some of you guys since I know plenty of you have Dish.

I could get it by the end of next month. (Maaaaaybe. )

Don't know if this has been posted before, if it has since it's got like millions of views and hits, I apologize.. Anyways.. This kid's has some serious issues... That's all I have to say.. 


There's 9 other videos of this nutcase on his rampages..

Reminds me of the issue with kerligirl13 last month. But what the  , that's just disturbing yet horrible at the same time. Noting the words ORIGINAL VIDEO on the title, were the original videos deleted?

I have a feeling it's quite possible. I feel that they use "Wx" too much lately.

I think some advertising on my blogsite pretty much helped as well.

That's amazing! 1.5 million views is a lot! Keep up the good werk, TWCT/TWCC!

Wow, I come back from my night out with my friends and all of the sudden my parents have planned to go to the beach this weekend. To be honest I have traveled so much. I need a weekend off. 

Are you REQUIRED to go?

Code: [Select]

[2:49:41a] <@Anistorm> well...
[2:49:48a] <@Anistorm> I'm leaving again this weekend
[2:49:59a] <@Anistorm> woo
[3:11:16a] <@Anistorm> I tried convincing them that I'd stay for the weekend
[3:11:18a] <@Anistorm> but I failed
[3:11:21a] <@Anistorm> -_-
[3:11:24a] <@Anistorm> I need a weekend off
[3:11:29a] <@Anistorm> I'm tired of traveling

[10:09:55a] * @MeganiumStorm is AFK, somewhere. gone till 8.15.10 or late night 8.16.10 depending on timing. >_> megaaa. —I-n-v-i-s-i-o-n—I believe that's a yes

Thanks for showing that, Jesskitty.

Yeah, I was required to go. And to be honest it was a total waste. It was a repeat of last weekend, but much worse.

Tye-dye shirts are so... uhh... 1990's? j/k

I've worn some back then, but I don't have any right now. I've also made one of my own before as well.

I now own all of his songs. I'm pretty sure I am not missing any of them. Whenever Ryan releases a new song or album, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna buy it no matter what.

His new album, Bloom, is the best. I also like Wonderfall, but Bloom is amazing.
