Things just got interesting! I am waiting till end of May for Directv to announce new HD channels with launch of new satellite. If same old same old, Voom is starting to look more apealing. With the montly lease deal, risk is really reduced. Its becoming a consumer's dream with all this competition. I love it.

"We are very pleased to partner with VOOM in bringing this highly innovative product offering to market."
Additional key features of the VOOM HD Home Media Network will include:
Standard DVR functionality: stop, start, rewind and fast-forward at the touch of a button
Separate television control: pause and rewind a program on one television, while continuing to watch the same program on another television
Record and play - whenever: record a program in one room and play it in another, at any time
"Follow Me": pause a television program in one room and then continue watching the same program in another room
Content organization: organize recorded content in folders and set parental controls that download automatically to each television in the house
Music and photos: upload both music and photos from a computer, which can then be managed through on-screen television menus and enjoyed anywhere in the house
ESPN! Voom rocks! :rockon: Looking forward to the cool new DVR that is suppose to be out for fall:
Smart move. The "signal pusher" who establishes a reputation for offering the best HD solutions at this stage of the game stands to win a huge market share down the road. The whole HD market is about explode and VOOM appears to be making all of the right moves to distinquish themselves as the distributor of choice for HD content.

I agree. Hopefully D* will offer networkhd feeds, which few can get anyway and fill out thier movie paks. That will leave them in the dust as far as HD is concerned for another year.

Now all they need is to get the rights to NFL Sunday Ticket and I can cancel my Direct Tv ! I have both now and really the NFL Sunday Ticket is the only thing keeping on with them. HDnet sux in my opinion. Never seems to have anything to great for sports fans!

Well it looks like you will be with Directv for a while because they have NFL Sunday Ticket exclusively for several years.
